Hello, while the STRAWPOLL about the creation of a newsgroup is still going on, there are yet two other subjects to vote about which we have discussed recently: * Shall we move the GPC mailing list to another place, gpc@gnu.de, where it can be maintained automatically? (The fact that gpc@hut.fi is maintained manually has caused long delays of subscriptions in the past.) * Shall we create a separate, moderated GPC mailing list gpc-announce@gnu.de for announcements? (I can act as the moderator if noone rejects this. Since I am sending most of the announcements anyway, this would be quite natural.:-) Again I ripped off a Usenet CfV ballot. Please fill out the form below and reply it to peter-votes@gerwinski.de (Reply-To header is set). Do not send votes to the GPC mailing list; only discussion should go here. Also please do not confuse the ongoing STRAWPOLL and this CfV. ;-) Greetings, Peter -- Peter Gerwinski, Essen, Germany, http://home.pages.de/~Peter.Gerwinski/ Maintainer GNU Pascal - http://home.pages.de/~GNU-Pascal/ - gpc-19990118 PGP key on request - 6C 94 45 BE 28 A4 96 - 0E CC E9 12 47 25 82 75 *** Vote against SPAM! ********* http://www.politik-digital.de/spam/ *** 8< ------------------------------------------------------------- Votes must be received by 23:59:59 UTC, 18 Apr 1999. The CfV RESULT post will be mailed to the GPC mailing list. IMPORTANT VOTING PROCEDURE NOTES: READ THIS BEFORE VOTING Only one vote is allowed per person or per account.

Votes must be mailed directly from the voter to the votetaker. Anonymous, forwarded, or proxy votes are not valid. Votes mailed by WWW/HTML/CGI forms are considered to be anonymous votes. HOW TO VOTE: Extract the ballot from the CfV by deleting everything before the "BEGINNING OF BALLOT" and after the "END OF BALLOT" lines.

Please provide a valid name and indicate your desired vote in the appropriate locations inside the ballot. When finished, MAIL the ballot to: <peter-votes@gerwinski.de> Just "replying" to this message should work, but check the "To:" line.
