In an attempt to create an unmoderated newsgroup for the Sun-related
computer systems, I am posting this article.
The only newsgroup presently available for posting general
Sun-related news is comp.sys.sun, which is a moderated
newsgroup. An unmoderated newsgroup is needed, because
a) posting via the moderated newsgroup is slow
-- the moderator lets messages sit around
too long before posting to comp.sys.sun.
b) moderated newsgroups cannot be read and
processed on an article-by-article basis with
rn and various other news-reading programs.
c) Many people, myself included, object to
moderation on principle and to the moderation
in comp.sys.sun in particular.
2) I suggest comp.sys.sun.unmod as a name for this group.
To vote for the new newsgroup send email to:
davisy@cs.unc.edu ==> ARPA Net and CS Net
{...}!uunet!mcnc!unc!davisy ==> UUCP
I would like for anyone with suggestions or comments about such a
newsgroup to also send email.
