The comp.apps.spreadsheets newsgroup passes as proposed. 

The charter, as approved, is:


      This newsgroup will provide a forum for the discussion of spreadsheet
      products on various computer platforms. Use of spreadsheet products,
      add-ons, macro/scripting languages, and connections to other products
      (such as databases) would be topics for discussion. Commercial, 
      shareware, and public domain products may be discussed.

This will be an unmoderated newsgroup.

The final vote tally was 147 yes votes and 24 no votes. Since there are
at least 100 more yes votes than no votes and at least 2/3 of the votes
are yes, this group should be created.

The final voting breakdown was as follows:

NO votes:

The comp.apps.spreadsheets newsgroup passes as proposed. 

The charter, as approved, is:


      This newsgroup will provide a forum for the discussion of spreadsheet
      products on various computer platforms. Use of spreadsheet products,
      add-ons, macro/scripting languages, and connections to other products
      (such as databases) would be topics for discussion. Commercial, 
      shareware, and public domain products may be discussed.

This will be an unmoderated newsgroup.

The final vote tally was 147 yes votes and 24 no votes. Since there are
at least 100 more yes votes than no votes and at least 2/3 of the votes
are yes, this group should be created.

The final voting breakdown was as follows:
