Violation of trust on other projects is another. e.g. Exactis V. MAPS,

How did this turn into a discussion about spam and blacklists? I thought it
was about djbdns.

Oh, wait, I forgot who posted those comments. Sorry...

Well, any evaluation of Vixie performance is bound to get around to spam
sooner or later.  But, I notice that you aren't saying MAPS did the right
thing, or that the incident ought to make us want to trust MAPS...  Just
out taking shots, eh?  Well, its a good day for it, I guess.

BTW, Steve, have you learned how to read mail headers yet? Do you still
need me to tell you how to block a mail server?  I have a nice little
train of emails where Sobol can't figure out how to read SMTP headers to
block our servers, and winds up insisting "I can read headers! I can read
headers!"--it'll go up on www.iadl.org this week sometime.

This is going up too:
