> Oh certainly, but it's all a matter of perspective right? This response has made me, personally, more trusting of this organization. I have stronger faith that this group is willing to police misconduct and give serious punishments even to people that are otherwise considered paragons. Considering how many FOSS communities allow those with name recognition and technical prowess to act completely inappropriately without saying a word I personally find this refreshing.

This is actually a very good point, one that I had not thought of because I personally consider that nothing I've seen in this case even warrants a warning as a moderator (as a private person, yeah, it would be fair to ask him to avoid certain topics, but it would be also fair for him to not fully heed those requests after considering them because I don't consider it reasonable to be offended by them, and I believe reasonability should be the bar). And yes, if there is a refreshing aspect of this, then this is it.
