- Since the end of October 1990, there has been no funding for moderation
- of the newsgroup comp.std.unix and its associated mailing list
- std-unix@uunet.uu.net. Since that time, I have sought such funding
- from several user groups, the IEEE Computer Society (IEEE/CS), the
- IEEE/CS Technical Committee on Operating Systems Standards Subcommittee
- (TCOS-SS), and various private companies. No funding is forthcoming.
- As I remarked three months ago, I cannot afford to moderate the newsgroup
- as a volunteer. I have solicited volunteers, but no one has thus far
- come forward.
-
- So, this is a final call for a volunteer moderator, responses to be
- received at std-unix-request@uunet.uu.net by 15 February 1991.
-
- If there is:
- * one volunteer, that one will become the new moderator;
- * more than one volunteer, the last one to apply will conduct a vote
- by USENET rules to determine who becomes the moderator;
- * no volunteer, the newsgroup will become unmoderated.
-
- I will not discriminate among applicants: all are equally valid,
- regardless of qualifications.
-
- Arrangements for archives and interconnection between the newsgroup
- and the mailing list will have to be worked out by the new moderator,
- if any.
