It appears that sometime after Chuq Von Rospach asked not to be sent
any votes for comp.sys.mac.programmer he changed his mind. But not
before Roy Smith and I both volunteered to collect them. Well, after
corresponding with Chuq and Roy, we've decided that Chuq will take
charge. Therefore, I will be sending him a list of the votes that I have
received so far.
What follows is the list of votes that I have received as of Fri Jan 22
23:56:00 PST 1988. If you are on this list you don't have to bother
voting again. If you sent me a vote but aren't on the list you should
probably send your vote to chuq@sun.com. I will forward any votes I get
in the future to Chuq, but no sense in not playing it safe.
On the newsgroup name: some people expressed a preference; most didn't.
Personally, I like the name "comp.sys.mac.tech" better, but feel that
"comp.sys.mac.programmer" is more practical. The distinction we are
trying to make (I think) is more that of programming vs.
non-programming questions rather than technical vs. non-technical
ones.
So far in two days of voting there are 38 ayes and 3 nays.
