us.* heiarchy--scary
The following is only tangentally c-punk. It is also long. Ctrl-C now if that is your only concern.
From: d9bertil@dtek.chalmers.se (Bertil Jonell):
They, and I'm talking of a cabal of seven persons calling themselves the "US Hierarchy Coordinating Committee" out of a net population of twenty million, want to sneak through severe changes in the newgroup creation procedures that would put them in absolute command of the us.* hierarchy.
Whoever wrote this is a moron who doesn't understand the newsgroup creation process. (Do I? I'm a UVV member.) David Lawrence, one of the US Hierarchy Coordinating Committe, already has absolute control over newsgroup creation as the moderator of news.announce.newgroups. He occasionally uses it to stop brain-damaged proposals from going through. USEnet is not a democracy, and it never has been. Followups to news-newusers-questions@uunet.uu.net, please. This has no c'punk content, except the desire to head off a stupid thread.
