I vote we kick Enrico off the list. Spamming it with junk that wastes
space in the archives and our own mail folders (and then telling us to
code perl mess to strip it) is incredibly rude and arrogant, just like
trying to design a media api to impose on us, and a config/release
announcement/etc. system to impose on us as well!!
