Who gets to vote?? I've been in newsgroups for 15 yrs and never have seen
these things done publicly, it always done behind the scene. As a Bell
Atlantic employee I know damn well Bell Atlantic.net is a new player to the
newsgroup and really shouldn't be setting policy. The descisions you discuss
really aren't made publicly so this list really serves not purpose on a
public list. In fact these 3 messages are the only ones I've ever seen on
the list, not that I belong if often or for long periods.
