The only time we ever kick someone from the channel (aside from when they *know* 
it's a joke) is when they are being an ass. This was definitely one of those 
times. Anyway, we could not help him. He was asking *only* for wolf31o2's spec 
files which we do *not* have. He continued to insist that we should give them to 
him bringing in the GPL (which had no bearing on the situation) and generally 
making an ass of himself. If he had behaved this way in #gentoo or #gentoo-dev, 
he would have been kicked from those channels as well.
