xanthian@zorch.SF-Bay.ORG (Kent Paul Dolan) (11/02/90)
For those who care, a 34Kbyte proposal for partitioning comp.sys.amiga just got sent to the moderator of news.announce.newgroups. If Eliot follows his normal schedule, it will be posted about Sunday, and spread across the net as usual. Discussion henceforth will take place in news.groups, not comp.sys.amiga. The posting is titled: CALL FOR DISCUSSION, Revision 3; comp.sys.amiga reorganization or some such, and is crossposted to the Amiga groups, the last time until the call for votes that a major posting on the reorganization will show up here, though I may post reminders here when I post revisions to news.groups. Thanks again for all who contributed to the discussion! Since the last posting here, the big changes are putting back into the proposal the c.s.a.audio and c.s.a.graphics groups based on data from Robin LaPasha about the Amiga Hypermedia mailing list, renaming c.s.a.market to c.s.a.marketplace, and, most happy thesaurus treasure, renaming c.s.a.influence, to c.s.a.advocacy, an absolutely unambiguous name at last! Your support and well wishes are welcome. The big effort is still ahead. Also, I need more charter writing volunteers; my fingers are tired! ;-) Beware, the followup on this article is to news.groups! /// It's Amiga /// for me: why Kent, the man from xanth. \\\/// settle for <xanthian@Zorch.SF-Bay.ORG> <xanthian@well.sf.ca.us> \XX/ anything less? -- Convener, ongoing comp.sys.amiga grand reorganization.
