Re: [ga] Suspension for one month

[Joe Baptista <baptista@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I support the suspension based on two complaints received to date from:

Hugh Dierker on 25/08/2007 in which complaint said that Mr. Williams 
"recent postings as being disruptive. In particular posting falsities 
with the specific intent that they disrupt ongoing activity on this list."

Danny Younger on 02/09/2007 complained that Mr. Williams "posted to the 
GA list on eight occasions within a 24 hour period on September 1 in 
violation of the GA rules."  This was confirmed.

I however would recommend that the suspension be for a period of two 
weeks.  This is in accordance with the list rules in which first 
offensers are suspended for two weeks.  Which see section 4 at URL:
