Yeah, I've seen these forged emails on the mailing list, plus a few
other colorfull ones. You should see that people on the list are not
completely against this idea, and they are not fooled by those forged
emails.

PLEASE do not give up.

What you are facing is an identity issue with the postgresql users.

It's also quite likely, as Rebecca Ore said, that the forged emails
really have nothing to do with the postgresql users. news.groups and
its denizens have been under attack for the past several months by a
troll who, among other things, forges offensive posts to groups
affected by current proposals. I think he had taken a short vacation
and is now back to again disrupt proceedings here by making life
miserable for people discussing new groups.
Kathy and Rebecca are right. I just looked at the mailing list. The headers
are the same as those of the usual forger, and at least one person has
named one of the same suspects[1]. This is a disgrace.

Mike, please reconsider your position. Your second RFD looks really good,
and the 5 groups that you chose are right on the money. You are a good
proponent. You've taken all of the feedback into account, good and bad, and
implemented the appropriate changes. Don't let this kook thwart your
efforts.
