Yes. By you.

Doesn't mention demanding "action" on the mailing list.
So do it properly (especially the bit about assuming good faith),
document what's going on, build a list of concrete examples - i.e. put
a case together (maybe on the wiki?). If it's not possible to resolve
within the community (messages, emails, offering the guy help,
explaining the trunk/primary issues etc), then contact the DWG - but
please don't just email them with a "ban this guy cause I say he's a
vandal" type email; do it properly, give them convincing case notes.
Cheers,
Andy
