Pardon me, but the full RFD/CFV/How to Create a New Usenet Newsgroup"
process does _not_ apply to can.* newsgroups.  You need to read the
can.* FAQ in can.config first.  news.* has nothing to do with can.* -
can.* group discussions do not belong at all in news.groups.

You should be glad it doesn't, because the chances of getting enough
votes to pass a CFV for a can.* group are slim-to-none.
