We've flamed numerous admins who didn't know better for netwide
newgroups sent without discussion, much less a vote.

Rick certainly knows better.

Rick also is regarded as one of the prime net.gurus, and may have a very
good reason for doing this without following the guidelines - in
particular, without any discussion anywhere. I had no idea this was
coming until I got the mailbox message that it had been created, and I'm
a regular talk.bizarre, news.admin, and news.groups reader.

Care to explain, Rick?
