Summary: (I assumed that they must.) Keywords: call, votes Message-ID: <617@crdgw1.crd.ge.com> Date: 5 Jun 89 12:27:05 GMT Sender: news@crdgw1.crd.ge.com Reply-To: streeter@crd.ge.com (ken streeter) Followup-To: news.groups Organization: General Electric Corp. R&D, Schenectady, NY Lines: 25 I have recently seen a 'CALL FOR VOTES' for misc.headlines.unitex posted in news.misc. This call for votes was posted in misc.headlines, talk.politics.misc, soc.culture.china, and news.misc. Doesn't "group creation procedure" require that such calls for votes, etc., be posted to news.groups? (I just wanted to be sure that I don't have to read every single newsgroup on the net to be sure that I don't miss a call for votes of something I may be interested.) Note: I am not trying to oppose the creation of misc.headlines.unitex by screaming "not proper procedure" -- I just want to see the call for votes posted to news.groups! Kenneth B.
