[comp.lang.smalltalk] Final

eberard@ajpo.sei.cmu.edu (Edward Berard) (09/30/89)

The final (adjusted) total for comp.object is 884 "yes" to 21 "no" votes.

Stephen J. Friedl pointed out a "yes" vote that was counted twice:

> eiffel!Athens!nosmo@uunet.UU.NET                       Vincent Kraemer
> eiffel!nosmo@uunet.UU.NET                              Vincent Kraemer

Robert Stanley sent me the following address corrections:

A few people wrote to inform me of their reactions to the vote, e.g., "wow,
what a large voter turnout." Ten (10) additional "yes" votes arrived after 
the voting closed. Finally, no one informed me of any unrecorded or lost
"no" votes.

Therefore, comp.object has passed all requirements for becoming a new,
and legitimate newsgroup. Thanks to all who participated in the 
discussions, and in the vote.
