kristoff@NET.BIO.NET (Dave Kristofferson) (03/24/89)
Today marks the end of the 60 day voting period on the population biology (POP-BIO), mouse genetics (MUS), and cytogenetics methods (CYTOG) newsgroups. POP-BIO passed the 40 vote mark a couple of weeks back (48) but MUS and CYTOG failed to muster sufficient support and will not be created. An announcement will be made on BIONEWS when the new POP-BIO group is ready for operation. My thanks to all of you who took the time to vote. This Saturday also marks the halfway period in voting for the proposed CANCER-RESEARCH (CANCERES) newsgroup. If you are interested in participating in such a group (described in an earlier message on BIONEWS), please send a message with the line YES ON CANCERES to one of the voting addresses below. Voting on CANCERES remains open until April 25th. Sincerely, Dave Kristofferson BIONET Resource Manager kristoff@net.bio.net or kristofferson@bionet-20.bio.net ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Voting addresses: Address Location Network ------- -------- ------- biovote@irlearn.ucd.ie Ireland EARN/BITNET biovote@uk.ac.daresbury U.K. JANET biovote@bmc.uu.se Sweden EARN/Internet biovote@net.bio.net U.S.A.
