G'day George,
Someone is in violation of WP:POINT regarding this discussion: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Inciden...
I don't think WP:POINT has anything to do with that block.
That reference may have gone over people's heads; I was referring to having a major IRC-related snafu blow up like this right as the discussion had come up here on the mailing list. It would be POINTy if someone had intentionally set it up so that there was a controversial admin block due to IRC discussion right as we were arguing over how bad IRC was.
I don't actually believe it was done for that purpose; it was a throwaway line.
