What?!? I'm not sure any facts about Curt Monash have been established
here, nor am I interested in seeing such debate here since it is
clearly OT for this list, which concerns the efforts of people trying
to generate *positive* support for the *PostgreSQL* database system.
All we know for sure is that Roy Hann has made what are clearly
unacceptable personal comments on our list and should be censured and
possibly banned, not offered apologies, assistance and agreement from
core team members who should know better.
