See also articles `NET.INTERNAT: the VOTING' and `Netiquette Revisited'
in this newsgroup.

A plea:

Don't mail your vote when logged in as `root', `uucp' or `news' etc.
Especially if others are likely to use the same login.  My mailer
is a bit better than most but it had to be helped to count all the
recent votes I received.

Also, I'm not sure about votes like: "[Someone] asked me to send you
mail stating my support of a moderated group...".  This one was the
half vote.

I personally am in favour of a top level net.* group.  I don't like
net.internat either - but see the main article.  I am not going to
join the discussions about changing the name - I haven't got time.

Apologies also to all those who received replies with possibly
offending Message-Ids!  The Software did it.

Talking of software, I wish rn (or whatever) would include the
sender's Real Name in the headers of replies.
