Regardless of what side you fall on, I think we can agree that emotions are running very high at the moment. Nothing is going to change in at least the next 24 hours, so I am personally asking folks to step back for at least that long and think about:
Is what you want to say going to contribute to the discussion? Is it being phrased in a polite, constructive fashion?
If after 24 hours of reflection you feel your email still meets these criteria then I would say it's reasonable to send that email.
As python-dev's primary moderator, I endorse and second Brett's request. No, I'm not slapping blanket moderation on the list unless forced to. This is just a sensible adult-to-adult request to cool down and restore at least a shallow illusion;-) of mutual civility.
