If Waerth wants a discussion at the international maillist, he has to translate it himself. Not just drop his Dutch text here.
In short the following happened: -Waerth has been blocked, but created a lot of sockpuppets to get around the blocks. -Walter used CheckUser, to check if the sockpuppets were his (they could have been made by someone else to discredit Waerth. -Walter blocked the IP, with the reason: "Sockpuppet" and *without* referring to Waerth. -Waerth is angry with Walter and states that Walter abused CheckUser and violated his privacy. -Waerth states that Walter should no longer be Steward -Waerth states that he had to reboot his computer (I don't know if he acuses someone for that)
In my opinion Walter used CheckUser in the way it is meant for. He did not violate any privacy, he just did the thing a CheckUser *should* do in a case like this.

Have it translated by your favourite Dutch person:
Being a Dutch person... could you translate that for us ?
It's just a bunch of unsubstantiated accusations Anthere. Nothing interesting really.
Waerth apparently is soliciting for a permanent ban.
I, for one, would appreciate a fair and accurate translation.
