I propose that we do not offer egcs as un unlimited place for people
to post irrelevant off-topic posts that annoy the larger body of
contributors.

Paul is one such person that has violated my sense of what people
should be allowed to do.  I propose that we limit such damage for the
greater good of the list.  I propose that Paul be limited to read only
access for a period of 6 months.  I propose that we vote on it in 14
days, and do what the vote suggests.
