Hi Folks,
I hate to bug, but I do think that the Executor community would
greatly benefit from a newsgroup dedicated to Executor, even people
who couldn't directly use the newsgroup.
There are two days left to vote and I know that many people will put
off doing this because they think that someone else will do it, but I
just saw the status of rec.games.quake.* call for votes and although
the proposed groups passed, it was sufficiently close that I'm pretty
worried about comp.emulators.mac.executor.
So please, take the time to read the "How to Vote" section of the Call
For Votes (the complete CFV is still available in news.groups) and
then vote yes. BTW, the way Usenet group votes are *not* secret
ballots, which means that when the results come out, we at I will be
able to see how people on this list voted. BUT I personally will
avoid looking at who voted how, because even though I am asking people
to vote for this newsgroup, I will not alter my opinion of anyone
based on how she/he voted. I'd prefer the process to be a secret
vote, but I understand why the Usenet votes are done the way they are.
Bottom line: I hope people vote for the group, but it's certainly your
choice and not ours.

p.s. I understand that some people had to send their votes a few times
before they ever got an acknowledgement of the vote. I'm not sure why
