He's the person who founded the "Counter Vandalism Unit", so his
attitudes are influential.

He wrote on my talk page: "Are you sure you are worthy of admin tools
(strictly judging from your incivil and rather annoying attitude here
at wikipedia and on the mailing list). I DOnt believe if you had an
RfA now it would have passed."

So it's evident he's aware of the mailing list, if not participating
in it. I've left a message on his talk page.

Judging by the comments he left me, I have trouble seeing how a
one-on-one conversation would be constructive, but I'm certainly
willing to try.
