- Notes:
-
- This article covers the seven USENET hierarchies of comp, misc, news,
- rec, sci, soc and talk. It does not include INET groups.
-
- The STAT column indicates the moderated status of the group using
- the active file flags of B News, C News and INN. "y" is unmoderated,
- "m" is moderated.
-
- The VOTE column is the YES:NO ratio announced in the RESULT article
- posted here and to the groups in which the Call for Votes was posted.
-
- The DATE column is in MMDD (Month Day) notation.
-
- The INFO CONTACT is the address of the person who handled the
- proposal.
-
- Groups stay in these lists for one month past their change in status.
- The descriptions are arranged chronologically rather than
- alphabetically to make maintenance easier for me.
-
- Full charters for USENET groups are included in the group creation
- messages which are sent by the moderator of news.announce.newgroups.
-
- Control messages are scheduled for Monday through Thursday mornings to
- help smooth the startup of a newsgroup among the many sites that no
- longer do automatic newgroups and whose administrators don't get to
- them manually over the weekend.
-
- Groups which have <unknown> for a moderator's address will have the
- correct address listed in the group creation messages. Full addresses
- are included in the group creation messages and in Gene Spafford's
- List of Moderators.
-
- Corrections or other input on the format of this article is welcome.
