[news.announce.newgroups] Final Call For Votes: REC.AUDIO.HIGH-END

tjk@csd4.csd.uwm.edu (Thomas Krueger) (01/08/90)

This is a final call for votes. The pertinent information:

Proposed Group Name: rec.audio.high-end
Moderated: Yes
Moderator: Thomas Krueger (tjk@csd4.csd.uwm.edu)
Charter: 

	Rec.Audio.High-End will be the USENET gateway to the Internet
	mailing list Info-High-Audio. The wide-spread readership of
	Info-High-Audio implies such a newsgroup would be popular. The
	messages I received during the discussion period seem to support
	that claim. As is Info-High-Audio, Rec.Audio.High-End would be 
	moderated.

PLEASE notice that Rec.Audio.High-End is to be a GATEWAY for the Internet
mailing list Info-High-Audio. That is, the only purpose for the group to
exist is to offer Info-High-Audio to the USENET community at large and allow
the members of USENET to participate in the discussions in Info-High-Audio.

While Info-High-Audio is a digest, the individual messages would be posted
one at a time with a header similar to "X-Index" or some such to indicate
where in a digest that particular article would be located.

Since Info-High-Audio is moderated, Rec.Audio.High-End would also be
moderated, much like "comp.sys.sun" (for example) is moderated.

Voting Method: E-Mail only, to <tjk@csd4.csd.uwm.edu>. State "yes" or "no"
as unambiguously as possible. Voting will be open until 15 January 1990.
Votes received after that date, as well as any posted votes, will not be
counted. I will try to send an ACK message for each received vote; there
will be a mass ACK at the end of the voting period. If (and only if) there
are 100 or more "yes" than "no" votes AND a clear 2/3 majority, a newgroup
message will originate from CSD4 after 20 January.

Please remember you are voting "yes" or "no" to THIS proposal ONLY. If you
do not like the proposal, vote "no" and mail in suggestions for a new
proposal. I will be glad to answer any questions you have via e-mail or
discussion in news.groups. Thanks.
