[Send all votes to kelly@ipla01.hac.com. Votes to the moderator of news.announce.newgroups will be discarded. -eliot] CALL FOR VOTES: Unmoderated newsgroup comp.sys.alliant VOTING PERIOD: February 1, 1990 to March 1, 1990. SUMMARY OF DISCUSSION: The proposal to create a newsgroup dedicated to the Alliant series of computers was well received. Some expressed a concern that there will be little interest, judging by the lack of participation by most users in ALLUS, the Alliant Users Society. However, I feel that there is sufficient interest to call for a vote. CHARTER: The unmoderated group will be used for discussion of any issues related to systems produced by Alliant Computer Systems. HOW TO VOTE: Votes must be sent VIA E-MAIL to the following address: kelly@ipla01.hac.com Clearly indicate whether the vote is for (YES) or against (NO) the proposal, preferably by adding the vote to the subject line. Voting relates to comp.sys.alliant as proposed and nothing else; if you disagree on the proposed name or charter, vote NO or abstain --- conditional votes like "YES if ..." or "NO unless ..." will be ignored. The identity of the voters (E-mail & name) will be extracted from the letters containing the votes for posting the voting results. -- Keith Kelly Internet : kelly@ipla01.hac.com Hughes Aircraft Company HAC DECnet : IPLA01::KELLY Canoga Park, Calif Phone : (818) 702-2328
