[news.groups] Where's the sci.chem "newgroup" message?

bill@sigma.UUCP (William Swan) (03/30/89)

We have been somewhat on / somewhat off the net lately (I'm hoping this
makes it out), so I missed the sci.chem discussions. I do see that a 
newgroup message was apparently sent out a week or so ago, but such never
arrived here.

Was it actually sent out? Did it somehow miss the  uw-beaver!sumax!...
chain?

For some strange reason the announcement that the vote to create sci.chem
was "successful" was made in the newly created sci.chem and not cross-
posted.  So, those of us at sites that do not immediately pick up new
groups were left in the dark.  I only found out second hand that sci.chem
had been voted in, and then promptly urged my site administrator to
pick it up.
