Unblocked is not exonerated. Showing that the whole

Minor point: Giano explicitly said that he was no longer able to
post it "for your entertainment". I think that was a Freudian slip.
Giano clearly has contempt for Durova and wishes to cause maximum
embarrassment. I have some sympathy with the former (this was,
after all, bad judgment handled badly), but not the latter.
Well, the whole project now knows about the mailing
lists. We know
that the next time to apparently unrelated admins show up with the
same opinion, you have to think for a second before automatically
assuming they are acting independently.
As opposed to the situation before, where it was assumed to be the
IRC cabal.
publishing the actual "evidence"-- that was
a moral imperative.
No it wasn't. sending it to ArbCom might have been, but publishing
it was, as Giano freely admitted later, for prurient interest only.
