[wplug-board] IRC problem

[Evan DiBiase]

I don't think we need to offer him any sort of forum. The board has made a
decision that this fellow is a disruptive, unwelcome influence, and it would
just inflame things more to keep him around, I think. Let's politely but
firmly follow through on keeping him out of meetings and the channel.

I don't have a problem with this if it's done in a wplug-style organized 
fashion. However, I do have some concerns. Will it be a show of hands vote 
or a ballot poll. What is considered a quorum? If such a vote is to take 
place, it should be announced well in advance so that the membership can 
make arrangements to show up or otherwise proxy vote if we allow such a 
thing. I suspect he will rally his supporters.

If we don't do this, then he will move on with the notion that he is being 
persecuted and that we're just a 'click' that doesn't like him.
If you've paraphrased him faithfully, he still sounds like he feels 
entitled to everything in the world.
