What email address would a person send to in order to
cast a vote for this?

Newsgroups line:
comp.arch.embedded Embedded computer systems topics.
Votes must be received by 23:59:59 UTC, 15 February 1995.
This vote is being conducted by a neutral third party. For voting
questions only contact rdip...@qualcomm.com. For questions about the
proposed group contact Tim Tsai <ts...@iia.org>.
CHARTER
The proposed unmoderated newsgroup comp.arch.embedded will be opened
to discussions on topics related to embedded systems, including
embedded programming techniques, tools, hardware systems, and embedded
peripherals such as displays and data entry equipment. An embedded
system can be described as any application where a dedicated computer
is built right into the system but the end product is not a computer.
For example, the computer system that's built into a typical cable TV
box is considered an embedded system.
Topics not specific to embedded systems should be directed to the
appropriate group. Only topics that involve an embedded system that
can not be better answered elsewhere should be posted here. Use your
best judgment if in doubt.
HOW TO VOTE
Send MAIL to: vot...@qualcomm.com
Just Replying should work if you are not reading this on a mailing list.
Your mail message should contain one of the following statements:
I vote YES on comp.arch.embedded
I vote NO on comp.arch.embedded
You may also ABSTAIN in place of YES/NO - this will not affect the outcome.
Anything else may be rejected by the automatic vote counting program. The
votetaker will respond to your received ballots with a personal acknowledge-
ment by mail - if you do not receive one within several days, try again.
It's your responsibility to make sure your vote is registered correctly.
One vote counted per person, no more than one per account. Addresses and
votes of all voters will be published in the final voting results list.
There were 226 YES votes and 18 NO votes, for a total of 244 valid votes.
There were 3 abstains and 2 invalid ballots.
For group passage, YES votes must be at least 2/3 of all valid (YES and NO)
votes. There also must be at least 100 more YES votes than NO votes.
There is a five day discussion period after these results are posted. If no
serious allegations of voting irregularities are raised, the moderator of
news.announce.newgroups will create the group shortly thereafter.
