We would like to thank everyone for making this happen. Now,
woodworkers with respectable values will have an on-topic forum, and
they will not be stuck with the politics, filth, and drivel that are
associated with rec.woodworking. The NAN moderation team will create
the new group, rec.woodworking.all-ages, in about one week. All decent
woodworking folk should request the new group from the administrator
of their NSP.

Given the overwhelming success of the proposal, we have decided that
we will be submitting another proposal aimed at improving the
woodworking community in the near future. This will be a multi-group
reorganization proposal, which will include a separate marketplace
group for selling, auctioning, and announcing personal or commercial
goods and services related to woodworking. If anyone is interested in
joining the proponent team for the new proposal, please e-mail Vito
Kuhn or Susan Welchel for consideration.

Thank you for your support.


Ummm...right. Where were you when serious questions were posed in
news.groups? You simply blew them off. You never did answer the really
key question: "What makes rec.woodworking.bowdlerized distinct from
rec.woodworking?" You drew no functional line, nor did you infer one
from the types of posts that appear in rec.woodworking.

You grossly overstate the "problem" in the wreck.

You give the appearance of not acting in good faith. You dismiss your
critics with an airy wave of the hands.

No. This was a travesty.

Vito Kuhn and Susan Welchel


....partners in crime...

yours,
Michael
