I think the games grimoire still needs to be done.

I agree that HISTORY, ChangeLog and any other historical type document 
should not have the name in question removed.

I agree that the apparent personal attacks and other commentary are 
starting to get annoying.

I agree that despite the annoyance, we should avoid censoring anyone at 
this point.

As he mentioned, if we keep cc'ing him in, he'll keep replying. So if 
anyone feels the need to continue the discussion, I urge you to do it off 
this list.
