FAST TRACK ANNOUNCEMENT remove uk.culture.arts.storytelling
=======================

In the procedures established for maintaining the uk.* hierarchy
<http://www.usenet.org.uk/guidelines.html> there are provisions, where
there is a consensus and the proposal is straightforward and
non-controversial, to proceed by the "fast-track" method, so as to avoid
the necessity for holding a full vote.

I have now received a request to fast-track the following proposal:

delete newsgroup uk.culture.arts.storytelling

This proposal will be activated no earlier than five days from the posting
of this notice (i.e. not before November 18th), unless there are
objections (of which six or more, or any one which seems to the Committee
to be well founded, shall suffice to halt the process).

Objections should be emailed directly to Control at
<con...@usenet.org.uk>.

Objections will be resolved by the committee (comm...@usenet.org.uk)

============================================================================

Newsgroup line:
uk.culture.arts.storytelling Storytelling activities within the UK


RATIONALE: uk.culture.arts.storytelling

It has long been custom within uk.* to check for groups that are not
being used and then to remove them. By doing this we keep the number of
dead groups down increasing the chances that someone stumbling across a
group will find it useful.

An analysis of the posts to uk.culture.arts.storytelling from
2013-10-29 to 2014-10-29 has shown that there were no posts in this
period.

It is not the intention to remove any groups that are, or people
believe will be, useful going forward. If you are a user of the group
and feel it should remain then please reply to this and join the debate
on uk.net.news.config so I know not to press ahead with this.


CHARTER:
uk.culture.arts.storytelling

For discussion of the oral tradition of storytelling in and of the UK and
Ireland, by storytellers and those interested in storytelling alike.
Discussion can include topics about performance issues, venues,
historical roots of storytelling, reviews (including international
visiting storytellers and UK storytellers overseas, though not of
international storytelling per se), events, workshops, organisations
(such as the SfS) and services relevant to it. Folk music is off topic,
but will be allowed if relevant to storytelling. The posting of whole
stories is *forbidden* although appeals for sources and references are
permitted. No off-topic advertising or binaries allowed.
