Restore it, of course.

Once the policy is in place, no vote is required to undo its violation.

But then users will say that either the policy does not apply, or the actions
do not fall in the category covered by the current policy.

You should know this.  It already happened.

How about something simpler, which still leaves fws discretion:

Any user who has posted an item, or a response to an item, to a Grex 
conference from which that item has subsequently been removed may 
appeal that removal to the Board of Directors.  If at least two 
members of the Board publicly announce that they consider the matter 
worthy of review, the Board will vote at their earliest 
convenience on whether to undo the item removal.

(This provides for fairly quick relief in the event of injust 
removal, while avoiding definitional difficulties.  Also, a 
membership vote is always the default final arbiter, but hopefully, 
a board vote would reflect the likely outcome and thereby short-
circuit that tedious process.)

If you think this is micromanagement, you have a very unusual 
definition of the word.

It's amusing when you argue with and insult yourself, but you're 
both wrong.  Your way would force the system to attempt to define 
exactly what can and cannot be removed for cause -- a patently 
impossible task.  The only practical option is to explicitly support 
the existing system of discretion in the hands of those to whom 
responsibility has been given, and back it up with an appeal process 
which frees the system from this burdensome, tedious and seemingly 
endless recrimination.

The backup tapes that were in the Pumpkin are now in my house, for off-site
storage.  I don't know who will do the next back-up, nor when.

I bet one night valerie'll go over to gelinas' house, get him drunk, have sex
with him and steal the tapes.

#146 exactly expresses the problem:  Policies have to assume reasonable
people people behaving reasonably.  Maliciousness such as #146 describes
is not easily controlled.

No, you'd just find something else to carp about.  As you've amply
demonstrated over the past several years.
