For anyone missing the context, xlibre is an X11 fork made by a guy salty he was banned from Red Hat for posting right wing conspiracy theories: https://linuxiac.com/xlibre-xserver-project-plans-revival-of-x11/
Strange, nowhere in the article you linked to does it say that "he was banned from Red Hat for posting right wing conspiracy theories".
So far, we have not seen any official statement from the CoC team at freedesktop.org explaining why metux was banned. Could you please provide a source for your claim?
Enrico Weigelt. He's also an anti-vaxxer moron. To quote his own words on the LKML: https://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/2106.1/04542.html
The only benefit I see in Xlibre is that it will attract idiots like him and and draw them away from projects with real merit.
