Thinking back, I know 172 lost his sysop bit before then, but I do
think that was the big one in establishing that you could lose your
sysop bit for egregious bad behaviour.

Most detailed discussion happens on the admin noticeboards ([[WP:AN]]
and subpages). There's some discussion on the lists, and IRC
#wikipedia-en-admins was set up specifically as an admin matters
discussion space (and a place Danny or Jimbo could go when they needed
quick admin action on sensitive matters).
