Dave Blackwood has said he would issue a newgroup for
can.infohighway.moderated because he thought that there was consensus
on that.  I pointed out that I thought he was (a) wrong, and (b)
premature.

I agree, there does now seem to be a reasonable consensus on
moderating can.infohighway.  And I think if I issued the change
group, other admins would actually respect it.  Further, because
of the confusion with can.infobahn, I'd also like to issue newgroups
of can.infobahn to reinforce it.

But I won't do anything until I hear from Dave, lest, like with the
can.infobahn/can.infohighway debacle, we dig ourselves even further
into a big hole.

Dave?  Hello?
