It was created to provide a moderated<br /> alternative to misc.legal. In the past it has run with as many as<br /> 20+ posts a day. Now there&#039;s hardly a post at all any more.<br /> <br /> Procedure:<br /> <br /> Those who wish to comment on this request to remove this newsgroup should <br /> subscribe to news:news.groups.proposals and participate in the relevant<br /> threads in <br /> that newsgroup. <br /> <br /> To this end, the followup header of this RFD has been set to <br /> news.groups.proposals.<br /> <br /> All discussion of active proposals should be posted to <br /> news.groups.proposals.<br /> <br /> If desired by the readership of closely affected groups, the discussion may<br /> be<br /> crossposted to those groups, but care must be taken to ensure that all<br /> discussion appears in news.groups.proposals as well.<br /> <br /> For more information on the newsgroup removal process, please see <br /> http://www.big-8.org/wiki/Removing_newsgroups<br /> <br /> History of this RFD:<br /> <br /> Original request: 2017-08-15<br /> <br /> Bernie Cosell<br /> moderator: misc.legal.moderated<br /> <br /> &lt;/pre&gt;</div>
