No, it doesn't mean that. It means that Owen Lewis has decided to
carry on his conversation with Ken Brown by private email rather than
in public on the mailing list. His comment to the list indicates that
he does not consider the matter closed.

I am the only person who can remove subscribers from the list, and I
have never done so[1]. (Obviously subscribers can remove themselves.)

[1] Except in the usual course of managing the list: when it becomes
obvious from the number and type of bounces received that an address
has 'gone away' permanently or is suffering a long-term technical
problem, that address will be removed. This happens about three or
four times per week.
