          In your message about the vote for the 4 possible actions to be taken
you say nothing about the proceedure for or about:
          1. Subscribing to the new groups or unsubscribing from the present
group or even if this is necessary.
          2.   How   ,if at all,will the change from a INET to USENET group
affect people that have access to comp.sys.handhelds through BITNET only. ie
can't transfer files directly etc?
          3. Since I have only had access to Comp.Sys.Handhelds through BITNET
since the end of April (I am not an expert) what are INET & USENET ?
          4. What are the file headers you talk about for archiving. Are they
PC dependent or are the something that is done by the calculator?



          You might say to me lets not worry about that now lets vote: I think
however that the above questions should be answered up front. I think the
groups you have mentioned are acceptable an I will vote for them,I just think
that the questions I posed are important enough to be answered,mainly because
of the large number of different systems being used by all interested parties.
