The success of project Shun?
 

The recent contributions from the gang-of-three, Reay, STC and Tomlinson,
would seem to indicate that project Shun is failling in its declared
purposes
of removing abusive posts from this NG and increasing the number
of technical discussions.

Indeed, I would go so far as to suggest that to make those aims of Project
Shun reachable, that those involved should follow my example that has
been set in this NG over the past 20 years in this NG, the example of
encouraging technical and gentlemanly discourse?
