[development] How is it that new Drupal user is given CVS access to ban countries

You know it's really not Drupal, The Drupal Association, or any one related
to Drupal in an official capacities, job to tell, limit, or try and manage
what Drupal sites are used for. Complaining and whinning about the fact that
some user created a module that will ban a whole range of IP's based of
country has nothing to do with Drupal, Drupal Development or the Free
Software Foundation.

I think we can all appreciate you and understand your political/social
stance on what free means, but this has absolutely nothing to do with Drupal
development. To top it off it is completely hypocritical to say that an open
source project should limit peoples use of their project. It would then by
doing that no longer be meeting your definition of free flow of information
since it would be limiting the free flow.

Let's please move on people.
