I would like to propose the creation of a two new moderated newsgroups,
mod.sources.amiga, and mod.amiga. The sources group would be moderated
by me and the general amiga group would be moderated by Bob Page of the
University of Lowell CS Dept.
I would like for all votes concerning these newsgroups to be sent to
me via MAIL ONLY! Also, I would very much like two types of votes, both
from individuals, and from sites. To aid in counting the votes, please
indicate on your subject line that:
1) This is a vote.
2) Whether it is a vote from an individual or a site. If from a site,
please send how you represent the site.
In the votes, I would like to know several things.
1) If you consider your vote to be a "Yes" or "No" vote (for each
newsgroup!)
2) If a "yes" vote, whether you will
a) Read the group.
b) Post to the group.
c) Both of the above.
PLEASE!! Send all votes in mail, or if you must post a follow up article,
post it only to net.news.group! The most direct mail path to me is through
ihnp4:
ihnp4!pur-ee!pucc-i!aic
I will stop taking notes either the first or second week in April,
depending on how many votes are still coming in. A projected final vote
day would have to be set at April 5th. If you wish, you may send any
comments on whatever you like including the possible creation of a
mod.binaries.amiga group. There will also be an anonymous FTP archive
being kept on one of the local machines if this group is created.
Thank you very much for your time and votes!

From: CC.KASSEBAUM@R20.UTEXAS.EDU This message was only received yesterday. One consideration is the UseNet to ARPAnet gateway. Info-Amiga@Rutgers.ARPA should be gatewayed both ways no matter which way the vote comes out. I personally am against the moderated group idea and only will post to Info-Amiga. It was the FIRST. Remember that there are many sites that are not UseNet sites and want to keep things as simple as possible. No UUENCODE or UUDECODE etc. Regards, Don K -------

I'm all for the moderated amiga sources news group. This way it makes it
easier for those people who only want to receive sources, and vice versa.
Therefore, I cast my vote for a new moderated news group.
