With my Web Payments Chair hat off, -1, I don't see any behavior that would warrant that. We've existed for years without resorting to moderating or banning people in this community. Greg's entitled to his own opinion and he's entitled to voice it on this mailing list as long as it's related to the work we're doing here. He did go off-topic and he apologized for that and for the response to Steven. I don't think there is any further action that we need to take as a community. Just my $0.02.

If you say something out of line, apologize immediately and move on. > Note: nothing in the opinion above is meant as a position for or > against dark nets, or the two individuals involved in that past > conversation. +1 David, if you'd like to take this offline w/ Greg, Daniel, and myself, please feel free to do so, but let's not clutter the list w/ moderation discussion unless you feel it's absolutely necessary. -- manu -- Manu Sporny (skype: msporny, twitter: manusporny, G+: +Manu Sporny) Founder/CEO - Digital Bazaar, Inc. blog: The Marathonic Dawn of Web Payments http://manu.sporny.org/2014/dawn-of-web-payments/
