This is a request to net.news.group for the formation of new
subgroup - net.music.classical.  The purpose of this group
is to discuss various aspects of classical music.  The
broad interpretation of term "classical music" should apply
for this proposed news group.  Specifically, the group will
not bind itself to the more restrictive technical definition 
of classical music, which is associated with the time of
Hayden, Mozart, Beethoven, etc.  Medieval, renaissance, and so on
are fine.

The main reasons for this request are:
1. Some netters who appreciate classical music don't feel at home 
in net.music, and do not post articles.  The new group may increase
the number of classical posting.

2. There is little classical music information in net.music.
Many classical music lovers are tired to hit the 'n' key, or
read information that has no meaning for them.

3. People who are interested in classical music as well as other
forms of music can subscribe to both net.music and net.classical.music,
but those who don't care for rock, pop, etc.  should have the choice
to subscribe to their preferred group.

I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW to PROCEED from HERE?
What are the requirements for establishing a new group?
