Dept. - U.C. Davis. Lines: 291 Approved: woods@ncar.ucar.edu (Greg Woods) Apparently-To: [Because I was in crisis mode yesterday and didn't have time to get to n.a.ng postings, this article was delayed a day. So I changed the suggested creation date to reflect that. --moderator] Here are the Results of the vote for soc.culture.sri-lanka which began on 14th August and ended on 13th Sept. Yes: 207 No: 35 --- Majority: 172 The vote therefore passes, and I expect to create the group on 20th Sept. If you voted, but didn't get an ack, then your vote didn't make it here. If you got an ack your name should be on the list. My mailer dropped a couple of messages, but I think I recovered them. If not, my sincere apologies. There were 3 messages which I couldn't definitely place into either "yes" or "no". They were from: UPUL SONNADARA Chris Bryden Jessica Brockhaus The rest of the votes are at the end of the posting. Just to recap, the charter of the group is "For discussion about Sri Lanka and topics of particular interest to Lankans." and the group is unmoderated. My thanks to all those who voted (especially those who voted yes :-) and who contributed to the discussion. I'd also like to thank all the people who have been making valuable contributions to the slnet mailing list and hope to be seeing you in the newsgroup.
