Thank you (all) for posting this valuable information.
I am chucking to myself right now as I looked over the charter information. After so many years actively working (in the early years) to get things moving I have set back and let all the changes go by me. For the last several years I haven't even thought of the process of setting up listservs or ng's, that is until this last day or so. I am amused with myself on just how quickly I have forgotten all that went into the process. It is good to know that I come by my retirement from the formation processes honestly and can enjoy the fruits of the labor. Even though we keep an active server going all the time with a 1/4th bandwidth T1 line, I rarely even tinker with it any longer. It runs itself with only occasional maintenance. (That was the maintenance that kept me pretty busy the last couple weeks). Though it does seem for the most part the only thing (DH excluded) that pull me away from my quilting is the computers that still come in via friends and family to be overhauled. The compiling of information any more takes to much brain power. . thanks again juliasb For me letting others take the reigns and plunge forward is great, it has provided me the best opportunity of all. Now I have all the time I want to quilt and quilt and quilt...

It really doesn't matter what people said to you off the group - that's quite irrelevant to my point. You made an error and trod on peoples toes. You compounded the error with attempts to tell us we were wrong, and we are not. The charter forbids advertising IN ANY FORM, and offering thing for sale (that is, in exchange for money) is advertising. clipped gently Kate what charter? Like I said earlier I have may not have the same information on ng's as others. It would be nice that I am not totally losing my mind. ???? thanks juliasb Certain hierarchies in the usenet require that a charter be written for any newsgroup that requests to be added to that heirarchy. There are probably some groups that grandfathered out of that, but even there most of those have been renamed and probably chartered in the process. The rec heirarchy requires that newsgroups be chartered at their formation, and did so in 1993 when this group was organized. Ergo there is a charter, it was posted in another thread: NAME: rec.crafts.textiles.quilting REPLACES: rec.crafts.quilting CHARTER: [unchanged] This newsgroup is for discussing anything related to quilting. That includes piecing, applique, and tyeing and quilting by hand or machine. Discussions may cover techniques, supplies,equipment, drafting of patterns, templates, dyeing materials, artistic approaches, exhibitions, shows, books and other references, mail order resources, dating quilts and appraising quilts. Discussions may include quilts and quilting both past (historical quilting) and present, ethnic quilting, quilts to be used in a home, quilted clothing to be worn, as well as quilts created for display and any other piecing or quilting applications Obviously (to me) written with just getting the group going in mind, and counting on people behaving in a civilized fashion. How optimistic of the author. NightMist |
