Jeff Williams is suspended from this list.  Now you circumvent the
rules and forward his posts here, thus making the rules ineffective.

I don't know what the interpretation of the rules says about this
behavior.  I know we have a precedent that forwarding an offensive
post from someone who has been suspended is a violation of the rules,
and the person in question was suspended (JW as a matter of fact) for
the act.

Should the rules also cover those who seek to make the rules
ineffective by forwarding posts of those who are suspended to the list
thus circumventing the effect of the rules?

I say yes.  And this can be considered a complaint of the same.

Regardless of whether you agree with the decision, as a member of
this body you have a responsibility to abide by the rules and honor
them.
