Hi Michael, Matt and everyone,

We have received numerous complaints about this behaviour and have acted to limit his ability to access Linux Australia mailing lists as much as possible, however we are limited in what we can do once emails are sent outside our infrastructure as I’m sure you can understand. Daniel does not have access to any of the mailing list subscribers, now or in the past, so we assume he has scraped this information as he did in a similar incident a couple of years ago.

We will look at further actions specifically regarding Daniel Pocock, as you and others have suggested. 

I ask the community to please not engage with Daniel, nor send any of his emails to the mailing list via replies or otherwise.

Thanks,

Joel Addison
