(This started in news.admin, but it getting swept into news.groups where it belongs) Recently, a couple of points have come up re: newsgroup proposals. 1) Can there be a 72 hour extra waiting period to allow for mail delays ? 2) Can posted votes under any conditions be counted ? My feelings are, in both cases, no, but thats not important right now. The point I'd like to address is who answers these ? If the backbone has truly been dissolved, how do we know what will get created ? .sex ? .women ? .eniac ? Is anybody in charge here ? If not, I nominate Bob Webber. -- Ice IS civilization. richard@gryphon.CTS.COM {backbone}!gryphon!richard
