As a member of the RIPE community I'd like to formally ask the chairpeople of the LIR-WG to remove Jim Flemings subscription to this list [and anyother RIPE lists].
I have for a long time argued for "the RIPE lists have to be *open*", but I want to second Neil's request now. Jim Fleming is not listening, and just disturbing the open processes.
As a long-term lurker and occasional contributor I would like to add my voice to those of Neil and Gert. Jim does not appear to have any interest in following the work of or contributing to the LIR-WG. Instead it seems to have become his personal soapbox through which he spams us all with his inexplicable, incomprehensible and apparently off-topic comments. If he were trying to sell "validated direct marketing email lists" I'm sure he would have been removed by now. Do RIPE find his contributions to date any more valuable to the LIR-WG? C.
