[gnu.g++.help] gnu.g++.help and comp.lang.c++

rms@AI.MIT.EDU (Richard Stallman) (02/11/91)

I said some weeks ago that it was up to the readers of comp.lang.c++
whether to have mail to help-g++ appear on that newsgroup, and the
readers were asked to vote.  There were not many votes, but the
majority have voted in favor of disconnecting the gateway.

So I think the gateway should be disconnected forthwith.

We will continue to use the GNU mailing lists and newsgroups for their
existing purposes.  That some people who don't support the GNU project
disapprove of these purposes is not a reason to change them; it more
likely indicates we're doing the right thing.
