	Well, the fact that these mailing lists were gatewayed to Gmane 
without the nominator getting our approval, and without Gmane 
confirming that this was an approved action, is pretty clear evidence 
to me that they don't bother to follow their own rules regarding the 
intellectual property of others.

	The fact that they personally promised me that this problem had 
been fixed after the last time I dealt with them, and yet we find 
that this has happened yet once again, is simply more fuel for the 
fire.
