 I haven't found a bc.config.

 I want a bc.driving and a bc.transit to be created.
 How does one propose such groups ?
 Where do such proposals and discussion go ?

	   Introduction to the British Columbia Regional Newsgroups
			 Periodic Information Posting
		      (Last changed: December 11, 1995)
	     ===================================================




	 This  message  describes the British Columbia regional news-
	 group hierarchy. It is automatically posted  on  a  periodic
	 basis  to  selected  British  Columbia regional Usenet news-
	 groups. Questions or comments about this message  should  be
	 sent  to  the  author  via  e-mail.   Suggestions on ways to
	 improve this document are encouraged.

	 Following is a list of the currently active British Columbia
	 area newsgroups:


	 bc.general
	      This  is  a general purpose catch-all group for discus-
	      sions that don't have a more specific newsgroup. Please
	      do  not crosspost articles to bc.general and one of the
	      special purpose groups as this defeats the  whole  pur-
	      pose of having separate newsgroups for differing topics
	      of discussion.

	 bc.bcnet
	      Messages concerning the operational status of the BCnet
	      network,  including  notices  of  downtime  and network
	      reconfiguration. The bcnet-tech mailing list  is  gate-
	      wayed  to  this newsgroup, however the newsgroup is not
	      gatewayed back to the mailing list.

	 bc.cycling
	      Traveling British Columbia on  less  than  four  wheels
	      (human powered only).

	 bc.jobs
	      Postings  about jobs: offered and wanted. This group is
	      for jobs in B.C. *only*! There  are  other  forums  for
	      other  areas. (See can.jobs and the misc.jobs newsgroup
	      hierarchy if you're looking for  something  outside  of
	      B.C.)

	 bc.news.stats
	      Daily summaries of Usenet traffic flow through regional
	      news hub sites.  This information helps  news  adminis-
	      trators spot problems with Usenet connectivity. (Pretty
	      dry reading unless you're into this stuff ...) This  is
	      not  a  discussion  group - don't post general articles
	      here.

	 bc.politics
	      Tips on running a bingo hall, and anything else related
	      to  the  wacky political arena in Lotusland. Please try
	      to keep political discussions out  of  the  other  bc.*
	      groups.

	 bc.unix
	      All things pertaining to the One True Operating System.

	 bc.weather
	      Automated postings of Environment Canada weather  fore-
	      casts.


	 Usenet  works best when everyone respects the topic focus of
	 the discussion area.  Please don't post messages to inappro-
	 priate  newsgroups. Further information on posting etiquette
	 (and Usenet in  general)  can  be  found  in  the  newsgroup
	 news.announce.newusers.
