Sorry but I get lost there. "eliminate" and "authorities" ... If someone 
misbehave and not abide by the CoC, FSFE can report the person to the 
authorities? I don't want to be part of a mailing list where a simple 
misconduct according to a CoC can be used against someone and be passive 
to start a police inquire.
