Some AUR users have posted on the list in response to the bot. I can't find the
others right now but here's one:

http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-general/2010-December/012330.html

Just to be clear, the bot does not insult anyone and it does state the reason
for the comment rather than some ambiguous "ur pkg is full of fail, lol"
comment.

My issue is that I consider the launch premature and overzealous and I'm
seeking reassurance that in the future ongoing discussions will be considered
before action is taken.
