They could certainly be more effective.  Thankfully the RUE was seen 
off.  Talk about grateful for small mercies, given the number of others 
who continue to insult the Python community and get away scott free, 
whilst they continue to discriminate against me in complete breach of 
the ethics that they claim to hold so dear.  Talk about bloody 
hypocrites.  Actually how do you get the job of moderator, insult the 
BDFL as Ethan Furman did just a day or so back?
