The Python Steering Council has decided to suspend a core Python developer for three months for alleged Code of Conduct violations.

Citing the recommendation of the Code of Conduct Working Group, Python developer Thomas Wouters revealed on behalf of the Steering Council that the unidentified developer was deemed to have repeatedly violated the Python Software Foundation (PSF) Code of Conduct.

The suspended developer is Tim Peters, who told The Register it was fine to name him but declined to comment – beyond observing that one of his objections to the governance process is the secrecy involved.

    You seem to be giving a lot more leeway to interpretations of Peters’ words than my comparison. Odd.

    It doesn’t require any leeway. It’s a totally mainstream opinion supported by actual research. It’s only in woke CoC teams that comments like that are objectionable.

    he’s also dismissing that it’s worthwhile to try and have an environment free from sexual harassment.

    Complete misunderstanding of his comment. Read it again.

    Gracefully accepting constructive criticism.

    Lol the irony is overpowering.

      There it is. Thanks for finally being explicit about the kind of person you are. People like you are the reason cocs have to be made in the first place. Don’t bother responding, I’ll be blocking you.
