Summary: Spaf's right

>THAN I DO TO CREATE ONE WITHOUT ASKING YOU.

As you may recall (but probably don't), this was discussed in net.news.group
(the correct place for that sort of discussion) and people were polled.  Also,
the people who created net.bizarre didn't follow the rules in the first place.
Looks to me like Spaf is in the right and the people who created and support
net.bizarre are in the wrong.

But what are you really complaining about?  If the backbones don't forward
it, it may as well be rmgrouped.  It's not going to get very far, and will
only have very local circulation.  Funny, Spaf suggested making it a local or
regional group in his post.... Looks like you're upset because Spaf asked the
people who want it to go to the work of maintaining it.
