suggest:

unban him from IRC, I'll take his IP out of the blocklists. He starts
where every dev starts out all over, at the beginning (no CVS access
until enough work done on code/patches etc etc). If he's interested, and
shows the effort in helping lunar out he'll know he has to regain some
(mount-everest sized amount of) trust. If we ever get there, we can sure
trust him to be sincere. If not, no (major) harm done.

I'm not to decide about everyone, just about giving everyone a fair
chance... who am I to hold a grudge?
