Private mails should remain private.

Ok, I think it's time to call the private behavior of Kitware employee
Sebastian Barre to the attention of the list.  I've repeatedly asked
him to stop sending me private e-mail flames, and he simply will not
do it.  This is the 3rd flame he's sent since being point blank asked
to stop initiating private communication with me.  I brought this to
Bill's attention; he said it's Sebastian's private e-mail and he
didn't want to get involved.  I will be getting Google involved as he
is in clear violation of their Terms Of Service.  It amazes me that
any so-called "professional" feels they have the right to routinely
engage in what every ISP out there defines as harassment, let alone
one representing a company such as Kitware.

Meanwhile, let's get the CMake community involved.  Do you think it's
acceptable for a Kitware employee to be harassing me in private e-mail
over and over again?   The amount of ill will that Sebastian has
singlehandedly created in the past few days is considerable.  Bill's
unwillingness to do anything about Sebastian makes me think he pretty
much agrees with Sebastian's opinions, and would like nothing better
than to drive me out of here.  If this is how Kitware thinks it's
acceptable to do business in an open source community, there is going
to be a sea change in how the open source world deploys CMake's core
technology.

Below is Sebastian's most recent missive:

Below is the kind of missive that led me to ask Sebastian to stop
sending me private e-mails.  I tolerated his diatribe and tried to get
him to see my point of view.  When that proved impossible I asked him
to stop contacting me privately, and he has refused.  In fact, he
seems to delight in sending me more private flames, just to prove that
I can't tell him what to do.
