Comment (by sirpengi):

 I'm willing to concede that the CentOS chatter could be considered off-
 topic, but 1) the ban action took place an hour and a half afterward that
 topic finished, 2) it was my first infraction and arguably a very minor
 one since 3) we heeded the warnings and took the conversation elsewhere.
 Unless you intend to counter-argue the other topics that I took a part of
 afterwards, I can assume that the ban will be lifted (it has not yet).

 If I need to open another ticket in honor of Xdept please let me know. He
 was also banned from channel, and he was only in there for 4 minutes - and
 with a legitimate question.

 My concerns about protocol still stand. Is there a document somewhere with
 guidelines that ops need to follow? If there is I'd like to see it be made
 public so that the channel governance could be a little more transparent.
