When I initially joined the list several years ago I was disappointed in the
attitude of one/some "gimp.org" posters because I  thought they were in some
way associated with the project. There was too much noise and disrespect so
I left the list because of it (but have since re-joined).

Personally I don't think it is an unreasonable expectation that someone with
a gimp.org email is associated with the project. It may be ridiculous to
expect a "rigid" public face, but I think the public should expect the
project to have a respectable face.

Can we please stop cluttering the development mailing list with this

The project has a problem. Several people have pointed out the problem.
Although not explicitly stated, I would think the purpose of the developer
list is to discuss project issues.
