Results will be announced by the end of October. Creation of the group requires 100 more YES than NO votes, and at least 2/3 of the votes must be YES. BACKGROUND: Originally, comp.windows.ms was a programmer-oriented group, but after the introduction of Windows 3.0, the group has been dominated by both general Windows discussion as well as articles related to Windows installation and video drivers. As it is now almost four months after the 3.0 introduction, and MS-Windows is the best-selling piece of software on this planet, the non-programming topics are unlikely to disappear. The current volume in comp.windows.ms is approximately 250 articles per week.
