OK, we've gone through the official discussion period for this newsgroup, so I am now asking you to MAIL (not post) your votes to me. So far I have received 16 votes, 14 for creating the group, and two against. I will summarize these posters at the end of the voting period. Voting will take place until October 26th at midnight per the rules. I will hope we'll have the votes by then to actually create the group. To help make sure your vote gets to me, please check the mail path you get for me by hand. If it goes through nuchat ( a dead connection), please reroute based on the .sig below, or re-route to Werner Uhrig at the U of Texas who can then forward it to me (his actual address is uunet!astro.as.utexas.edu!werner).

Comp.sys.NeXT was created last night or sometime close to then. As the creator of alt.NeXT I have to state that I don't believe in creating the group just yet because I feel it will be griped about from now 'til Doomsday. On the other hand, I wish someone had done it sooner ... >Voting will take place until October 26th at midnight per the rules. I will >hope we'll have the votes by then to actually create the group.
