Absolutely. I think many of us are approaching this situation from different angles, with different points of reference. Please bear in mind that this is a mailing list, not a wiki, and that our standards here are different because of this.
Also, folks, please try to reread the conversation that took place prior to David's comment. I would not have reacted the way David did, but what he did was hardly unjustified, and I think, not inappropriate.

Moderating that conversation, all involved, I think would have helped. I'll just note that Frank's first message to the list was on Sunday. Is he unmoderated now? To keep prying into someone's personal matters, as he did was entirely unacceptable, once it was said the matter was being dealt with. But, no one should post such language as David did, as it only flames the situation. Not all discussions would need moderation, but I think some may.
