12 From the new conflict resolution policy (found at
13 http://dev.gentoo.org/~plasmaroo/policy.xml, will move to some more
14 official place soon):
15
16 --snip--
17 Issues not necessarily related to personal conflict, such as
18 intentional or repeated policy breaches, malicious or abrasive
19 behavior to users or developers, or similar developer-specific
20 behavioral problems should be brought directly to Developer Relations
21 via devrel@g.o. These should be dealt with on a case-by-case
22 basis by Developer Relations and may require disciplinary action.
23 --snip--
24
25 So if by breaking the keyword someone breaks a policy, it is something
26 devrel should and will deal with.

28 cheers,
