I had to write Keith 3 separate emails in the past couple days as a
result of his overheating on the list. If I have to go further than
that, what is the procedure for formally warning a WG participant that
they have to either shape up or get excluded from posting? If he
persists, how can I kick him off?
Dealing with Keith (and folk like him) on zeroconf is definitely a
problem. His ability to post faster than normal folk can read is in
fact a DOS attack. As you know, other people have said as much
privately and it makes following the mailing list daunting and is
keeping folk from participating. I count something like 120 messages
in the last two days on the zeroconf list. No one can reasonably be
expected to keep up with this sort of traffic.
It is worse than simply jamming. It is possible to tune out a kid
