no.  gert was correct.  but you are correct in the sense that it is not
a slippery slope.  it is the bottom of the slope.

the slope started with insufficient diligence in registration services
when dealing with some quite abusive actors.  next, in the process of
cleaning it up, american style lawyers created the overreaching ripe-716
to formalize a weapon to punish miscreants.  now folk in this wg wave
the weapon around to punish others who might be miscreants of a
different sort.

a martin niemöller quote comes to mind.

as does "the only winning move is not to play."

randy, who thinks this is a sad day for the ripe community
