We're picking mailing lists to start with.  There is already an effort
in place to try and correct the IRC channel issues, we'd rather not step
into that and distrupt the existing effort unless we absolutely have to.
Forums are outside of the Fedora project space and we have no authority
there.

We would treat them the same way we would treat any other contributor.
If the person in question looses their ability to do their job within
Fedora, that's a matter the person will have to bring up with their
management chain.  However I strongly feel that there should be no
different treatment no matter who you work for.
