The final tally was 130 YES, 12 NO, so the proposal > passes! The guidelines for creating new groups require a 5 day waiting period Basic newuser question: How will I go about getting this newsgroup? I am connected to a site that polls UUNET for news regularly. Will the create newsgroup command come about as part of the regular usenet net news control streams or will I have to go search for a site that carries it or what? Or is this a good example of why I should be a part of UUNET and register as a domain? +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Seton R.
