rshapiro@BBN.COM (Richard Shapiro) (11/12/89)
Rec.radio.shortwave passes with a comfortable margin: 265 yes, 10 no. In accordance with the guidelines, the complete list of votes appears at the end of this article. The distribution over time was as follows: 84% of the votes were cast in the first week (including 9 of the 10 'no' votes); another 10% the second week; and the rest dribbled in during the rest of the period. I'm working right now on the getting the swl-l gateway set up. Hopefully it will be in place not long after the group is created (assuming no problems arise during the 5-day waiting period).

geoff@pmafire.UUCP (Geoff Allen) (11/15/89)
Before anyone gets too worked up,
>geoff@uunet.uu.net [Geoff Allen]
is a vaild vote. It's from me, but I'm not at uunet. My real address
is geoff@pmafire.uucp or uunet!pmafire!geoff.
The From: line in our mail gets screwed up somewhere. It seems to leave
here OK, but who knows what happens in the mysterious world known as
e-mail!

Thanks for this timely reminder of how much simpler and better things are
when you *do* take the trouble to agree the name before the vote! At one
stage the 'swl' group had all the possibilities of a big name controversy,
but Richard & Co took note of the discussion and suggestions and then put
to the vote the above sensible name, which has now deservedly got a very
positive result.
