In article <4342@medusa.cs.purdue.edu>, spaf@cs (Gene Spafford) writes
about four opinions that have been expressed about how to resolve the
"name" issue for comp.women.

Here's a fifth: let's delete comp.{risks,edu,society,org.usenix,ai},
and then recreate them later 5 or 6 months from now when the whole
issue about "questionable" comp.* material is finally resolved.

In the meantime, I'm collecting votes for news.women: a newsgroup to
discuss how women's issues are treated on USENET.  Based on the past
month's worth of news in news.group, there is sufficient interest for
the topic.  It's to be unmoderated, of course.

Today is 14 June.  Voting closes 14 July.
