The (rather large and vociferous) discusison about the rec.music.synth
thing has spawned one legitimate question that I can tell (and, no, I
don't think it should invalidated the outcome of a vote taken under
the guidelines as they stood at the time.  ex post facto and all that...)

Is a msg w/ the subject line "RFD: ...." a sufficiently clear means
of notifying a group about a change that may affect them?  The initials
RFD, CFV etc are clear to the news admins in new.groups who have read
the guidelines and are watching for such things.  But using INITIALS
to try and get the point across to a bunch of musicians that got on
the net to talk about synthesizers may not be clear.

Should the messages that are posted to the affected groups have
more detailed, unobfuscated "Subject:" lines?  e.g. (1/2 :) ) :

	> Subject: Your news group may be renamed!!! Speak up NOW!
