mguyott@mirror.TMC.COM (Marc Guyott) (10/26/88)
This is the final update to the status of comp.windows.ms. So far I have received 153 YES votes and 10 NO votes. The last day to vote is October 31st. I will post the final tally on or around November 7th. The voting quide lines are: Deadline for votes: The closing date for votes will be October 31, 1988, with a 72 hour leeway period to account for net propagation. Results will be tabulated and posted first to News.Admin, then on all related newsgroups, and should be available by November 7th at the latest. Depending on the result of the vote, the proper admin members will then be requested to create a new newsgroup. Should the number of NEGATIVE votes exceed that of positive votes, then the request will be withdrawn. Votes should be sent via E-Mail to the following net address: {mit-eddie, pyramid, harvard!wjh12, xait, datacube}!mirror!mguyott Votes will be counted only if received via E-Mail, or if a voter cannot find an alternative path to this address, which does happen from time to time. All you need do is mail me a one line mail message saying either: "YES for comp.windows.ms" or "NO for comp.windows.ms". For those of you who are interested, I am including a list of the people who have voted up to this point. Thanks for your time and patience. Marc ---- ...
