SUMMARY OF DISCUSSION:  The proposal to create a newsgroup dedicated to the Alliant series of computers was well received.  Some expressed a concern that there will be little interest, judging by the lack of participation by most users  in ALLUS, the Alliant Users Society.  However, I feel that there is sufficient interest to call for a vote.  CHARTER:  The unmoderated group will be used for discussion of any issues related to systems produced by Alliant Computer Systems.    HOW TO VOTE:  Votes must be sent VIA E-MAIL to the following address:  	[email protected]  Clearly indicate whether the vote is for (YES) or against (NO) the proposal, preferably by adding the vote to the subject line.    Voting relates to comp.sys.alliant as proposed and nothing else; if you disagree on the proposed name or charter, vote NO or abstain --- conditional votes like "YES if ..." or "NO unless ..." will be ignored.  The identity of the voters (E-mail & name) will be extracted from the letters containing the votes for posting the voting results.  -- Keith Kelly                    Internet   : [email protected]          Hughes Aircraft Company        HAC DECnet : IPLA01::KELLY Canoga Park, Calif             Phone      : (818) 702-2328  From [email protected] Tue Feb 18 00:14:44 1992 Flags: 000000000201 From: [email protected] (Keith Kelly) Newsgroups: news.announce.newgroups Subject: FINAL CALL FOR VOTES: comp.sys.alliant Date: 20 Feb 90 18:10:12 GMT Distribution: usa Organization: Hughes Aircraft Company - Canoga Park, CA               Imaging Guidance Design Laboratory Reply-to: [email protected] (Keith Kelly) Followup-to: poster Keywords: posted  This is the final call for votes for the proposed formation of the newsgroup comp.sys.alliant.
