<br />
This is a formal Request for Discussion (RFD) to remove the <br />
{moderated or unmoderated} newsgroup {insert newsgroup name(s)}.<br />
<br />
Distribution:<br />
news.announce.newgroups<br />
news.groups.proposals<br />
misc.legal.moderated<br />
<br />
Proponent: Bernie Cosell <mlmmod@fantasyfarm.com><br />
<br />
Charter:<br />
<br />
See <https://www.dropbox.com/s/74g5zyaa9qc5i29/charter.txt?dl=0><br />
<br />
Rationale for removal:<br />
<br />
After a 20+ year run, the traffic in m.l.m has dropped to a post<br />
every month or two, if that<br />
<br />
History of the Group:<br />
<br />
Group was created in 1994. 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'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 />
