[ga] The Jeff Williams filter



I have investigated the filtering of messages from Jeff Williams on the
GA mailing list.
The facts seem to be as follows:

- In August, multiple people asked for the removal of Jeff Williams from the
   list, because he was posting a multitude of messages, seemingly without
   contributing any sense to the discussion.
- After extensive documentation of the Jeff Williams phenomenon had been
   sent to the list manager, Jeff Williams' ability to post to the list
   was removed.
- Three more email addresses, all suspected of being used by Jeff Williams,
   have also been denied posting rights.

These addresses were blocked administratively.
Since the list is now discussing what the right ruleset for the list is,
it seems appropriate to remove those blocks.

Regards,
