John, A number of individuals have already been contacted, and consequently several posts that clearly violate the charter have been avoided since our announcement yesterday, most of these being extremely political in nature and therefore highly inappropriate to the list. However, we must be careful to make the distinction between off-topic posters who consistently violate the charter, and those individuals who for the most part adhere to the charter, yet for one reason or another have become unpopular with other list members. Due to this reason we cannot simply field requests suggesting that named individuals are dealt with in a specific manner. Such posts merely increase animosity and contribute further to the noise. Further comment welcome off-list, as I requested initially. Cheers - John
