[news.groups] FINAL CALL FOR VOTES FOR COMP.WINDOWS.MS

mguyott@mirror.TMC.COM (Marc Guyott) (10/26/88)

This is the final update to the status of comp.windows.ms.  So far I have
received 153 YES votes and 10 NO votes.  The last day to vote is October
31st.  I will post the final tally on or around November 7th.

The voting quide lines are:


Deadline for votes: The closing date for votes will be October 31, 1988, with
	a 72 hour leeway period to account for net propagation. Results will
	be tabulated and posted first to News.Admin, then on all related
	newsgroups, and should be available by November 7th at the latest.
	Depending on the result of the vote, the proper admin members will 
	then be requested to create a new newsgroup. Should the number of
	NEGATIVE votes exceed that of positive votes, then the request will
	be withdrawn.
  
	Votes should be sent via E-Mail to the following net address:

	    {mit-eddie, pyramid, harvard!wjh12, xait, datacube}!mirror!mguyott

	Votes will be counted only if received via E-Mail, or if a voter
	cannot find an alternative path to this address, which does happen
	from time to time.


All you need do is mail me a one line mail message saying either:
"YES for comp.windows.ms"
or
"NO for comp.windows.ms".


For those of you who are interested, I am including a list of the people who
have voted up to this point.

Thanks for your time and patience.  Marc
