OK, moving on to mechanics, here's what I would like to propose:

- flip his moderation bit on the mailing lists, at least for
python-dev, python-ideas and distutils-sig (are there any other lists
where his presence is considered disruptive?).

- revoke his tracker privileges. If he would like something done on
the tracker, he can ask Guido or Ezio to make the change on his
behalf.

I'm willing to be the bearer of bad news, and let Anatoly know this is
being done, and cc' Guido and Ezio (as I'll also pass along their
offers of assistance).
