Hoi, Again, and sadly so, I have to say that Huib has been doing good work for the language committee. We do not have an issue with him or his work. I am not convinced that there are sufficient reasons to restrict Huib from doing the work that he does. I have in the past indicated that I am willing to mentor him, I have indicated that he does NOT want to work on nl.wp. He has not been active on nl.wp for quite some time.
All in all, I am not pleased about how this is going from bad to worse. I am frustrated that Huib is prevented from doing the work he does / did so well. In my opinion we are all as a consequence losers. Thanks, GerardM

When did this happen? Can you give me the ticket #? This absolutely should not have happened. If you have an existing account and you just need a key updated that's an automatic approval.
I can't find any ticket, or any discussion in my private email archive. It was probably requested by private email to Priyanka and then discussed by phone or in person. My recollections are fairly vague.
We don't have any process for revoking commit access at the moment, but Huib's request for a key change presented an opportunity to review his access level in the wake of his on-wiki banning. See:

An on-wiki ban doesn't disqualify someone from getting commit access. But we have to weigh the scale of someone's positive contributions against the risk of disruptive or malicious activity.
