[comp.binaries.ibm.pc.d] CBIP Format Discussion, Requests, and Thanks

frotz@drivax.UUCP (Frotz) (01/06/90)

First, I would like to thank Rahul for going through a great deal of
trouble to give the quality that we have had in this group for quite
some time.  "Thank you Rahul!"

Second, I would like to propose to the group that we get all of gripes
and snipes, etc., out on the table.  Rahul has done a wonderful job in
setting up the moderation of this group from creating brik to defining
the use of the special article headers.  However, "the customer is
never satisfied" and I think that we have all proven that lately.

There have been a number of very good suggestions that I would like
the next moderator to consider.  The group (and potential moderators)
is/are invited to point up the weaknesses with these points. 

*	Automatic [bi-]weekly (Sunday) postings of the current queue
	contents.  (I think that requesting status on the queue would
	be just too much work on the moderator.)

*	Automatic [bi-]monthly (end of month) postings of the how-to's
	of CBIP.  (NOTE: I am willing to work on what ever needs doing
	here.)

*	Moderator Vacation Notes (specification of the "dead time" and
	whether or not an alternate moderator will be active).
