Oh, I dunno. (I don't think I'm revealing anything I shouldn't about
AC discussions by saying that) The AC is quite aware of problematic
admin behaviour and, while extending admins a *lot* of trust and
slack, will deadmin people at the end of a case or (if needed) at the
drop of a hat for the good of the project. The AC doesn't scale, but
us old burnouts are telling the n00bs to do a set number of hours a
week on mucking out the arbitration pits AND NO MORE.
