I fail to see how that makes everyone here part of a community anymore than I'm part of the "community" of regulars at a bar I walk into for the first time.

As I said, the rules can and should apply within the list, but applying them outside the list is odd and wreaks of authoritarianism.

In the 20 years I've been using PG, I've not noted any bizarre "list speech" except this discussion that suggests others should monitor people's behavior wherever they are, and report any "infraction" to PG, so PG can boot them.  I'm with those who think that idea is diametrically opposed to open source's freedom.  What next, monitor what apps people are using their DB for and decide if the "community" approves of its character or not?
