maton@herald.USask.ca (Terry Maton) (01/03/90)
This is the SECOND CALL for votes on the formation of a new newsgroup
to be called soc.culture.british
*IF YOU HAVE ALREADY VOTED - PLEASE DO NOT VOTE AGAIN!!
The name was generally agreed upon during the discussion phase.
This group will be unmoderated.
Some of the primary uses of the group might include:
*Discussion of foods found in Britain
*Discussion of word uses in Britain
*Questions of things British that are strange or wierd
to people from other cultures.
*All the normal things discussed, questioned etc. in the
'soc.culture' groups
*British culture in general (what else?)
You may vote YES or NO by sending mail to maton@herald.usask.ca (UUCP)
or MATON@SASK (BITNET) or if all else fails try MATON@SASK.USask.ca
It is helpful, but not necessary if you specify your vote
in the subject line. POSTED VOTES DO NOT COUNT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
You may change your vote by clearly indicating both your new vote and
the fact that you are changing your vote in the subject line or the
body of the message.
It is preferable to simply put the line
'I vote YES to the formation of the newsgroup soc.culture.british'
or
'I vote NO to the formation of the newsgroup soc.culture.british'
as your message.
The voting will continue through January 20th, 1990. Any Votes RECEIVED after
this date will not be counted. I will post a mass acknowledgement of votes at
that time, along with the results. I will also post one or two additional
calls for votes before that time, in case anyone misses this one.
