Please no ad hominem attacks on the Best Bits list.  Non-personal
critiques of particular initiatives of any kind are otherwise OK if
relevant.  But personal criticisms, whatever the source or target, are
grounds for suspension from the list from now on.  This rule has not
been consistently applied in the past, but the results of our recent
Best Bits survey give a clear mandate for the administrators to take a
firmer hand in handling ad hominem attacks on the list.

Thanks.
