I'm not sure this is wise. If a suspended/expelled developers still receives |
| 13 |
the -core mails, he is more likely to, in his fury of being |
| 14 |
suspended/expelled, use this privilege in a negative way. |

Also, how long would this last? If a developer is suspended for 2 months but |
| 17 |
he doesn't return, I assume the read-only access to -core is removed as |
| 18 |
well. |

Next, how many suspended developers have returned? |
