Right - because otherwise we would surely have dealt with the problem.

As long as yosh defends carol's use of the gimp.org email address, and 
refuses to answer any mails asking him to remove that address, then all 
we're doing by talking about it is wasting everyone's time.

I sent a mail last week publicly asking for yosh to talk about his 
policies for gimp.org domains and email addresses, and he hasn't 
answered. We have both publicly asked for carol's email address to be 
removed. What do you think will change the situation?

If yosh is the blockage, then we need to convince yosh to remove carol's 
gimp.org email address, or route around him. If routing around him means 
changing name & domain name, why shouldn't that be brought up as a 
possibility? The other way to route around him is to move the domain 
somewhere else, and have our mailing lists hosted somewhere where the 
archives work. But that would need the domain owner (yosh) to make the 
change, and that's not going to happen soon.

I'm open to suggestions if you have any other ideas.

Cheers,
Dave.
