Well, again, see the thread about RMS GR. I remember there wer some 
really strong attacks between DDs or outside. Debian is a mulcicultural 
aned international project, with different cultures of democracy. It is 
a strength, but also really hard when addressing political topics.

This point is right. But I am not sure Debian is robust enough, today, 
to expell easily, quickly and without the victims to be disappointed to 
make part of the project, someone. recent examples show how such 
decisions are difficult, controversial, and while CT + DAM + DPL work on 
this, I think it is a long-term thought, given the original culture of 
Debian and the current society state of mind.
