This is the blog entry where the user asked her to step down from the
Ubuntu UK Planet:
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-uk/2007-March/thread.html#3698

My interpretation of the user's comment is not that he/she disagreed
with Caroline's post on the mailing list here about the sexist joke:
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-uk/2007-March/thread.html#3698

Rather, it sounds like he/she was disappointed that after citing another
user for violating the Ubuntu CoC on the mailing list that Caroline
would use crude language on her own blog which is syndicated on the
Ubuntu UK Planet.  In that context I believe that this user's comment is
justifiable.

Caroline, I hope you consider rejoining the Planet.  This sounds like a
misunderstanding to me.
