[bionet.general] VOTE on Three Newsgroup Proposals

kristoff@NET.BIO.NET (Dave Kristofferson) (01/23/89)

We have received proposals for three new groups.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

POPBIO all matters related to population biology or population genetics.

CYTOG  techniques and informations in the field of cytogenetics.

MUS    genetics and related matters (breeding, strains and stocks...)
       of the Mouse, with special focus on wild species.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
As stated in the recently released BIOSCI policy statement, we are now
calling for a separate vote on each of these three groups.  Each group
must gain at least 40 YES votes by March 23, 1989 which is 60 days
from today.

To vote, please send one message for each group with the following on
the Subject: line:

Yes on POPBIO
Yes on CYTOG
Yes on MUS

(although NO votes may be registered as well one simply does not need
to subscribe to the group!).

Send your votes to one of the following addresses:

Address					Location	Network

biovote@uk.ac.daresbury			U.K.		JANET
