I wish to start a discussion on amending a charter. Is there a preferred
format for this? If this is covered in a FAQ, please direct me to the
appropriate URL. Thanks.

This is the right group.   :)

What charter were you proposing to amend? I'm betting
it'd dfw.forsale, but I could be wrong.   :)

You bet correctly. I knew this was the correct group, but followed general
usenet protocol and asked for a relevant FAQ before continuing.

FAQ and Charter are different animals. If you want to amend the
charter for the group, a copy of the charter was posted less than a
week ago in this group. You can get a copy by subscribing to this
group, then getting all headers. The .dfw groups use charters as
rules, you'll need to try to amend the charter instead of any FAQ that
might be floating around.

There's no requirement to be very formal at this stage.  If
you want to call it an RFD (Request for Discussion) while
submitting your proposed change(s), that's the formal method.
At some point, someone will need to nudge Eric for a formal
Call for Votes (CFV), unless Eric's authority as the czar
gives him sole yea/nay capability.  (I don't think he operates
that way, but I haven't been around during a formal CFV around
here, so I'm not sure.)

Okay, wanted to be sure before kicking it off. Some .config groups are far
more persnickity about such things than others. ;)
