I don't see the your point about a poll having any bearing.

Nobody ever said the 'rules' for this list where created following a 
vote of any kind. Ubuntu (canonical if you prefer) host this list and 
thus they are entitled to define the rules/guidelines as they see fit. 
I'm betting (but cannot prove this) when we all signed up to this list 
we agreed to this.

As far as I am aware the official rules / guidelines are

http://www.ubuntu.com/support/community/mailinglists/etiquette

You seem in favour of free speech, and of course I agree with this. So, 
I see nothing wrong in anyone on this list using this right to remind 
others of the guidelines outlined on that page, if they feel the need to 
do so.
