[news.announce.newgroups] *CALL FOR DISCUSSION - New group "rec.arts.uk.misc"*

MATON%SASK.BITNET@EVANS.UCAR.EDU (11/28/89)

There has been a lot of comment in recent times regarding postings
to 'rec.arts.tv.uk' that have nothing to do with TV.
The fact is that they do often originate from questions arising
from brit tv shows seen in N. America (and maybe elsewhere).
However, I think it is time to give a seperate sub-group for these
questions/discussions of things such as food, customs, sayings etc.

As there are many locations that do not get the '.soc' newsgroups
it would seem appropriate to have this group under the '.rec'
heading.

I suggest a discussion period to last until Dec 15th at which time
if interest seems to be there, and general proposals be agreed, a
Call for Votes would be issued.
