FAST TRACK ANNOUNCEMENT uk.music.sixties (remove)
=======================
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.music.sixties
This proposal will be activated no earlier than five days from the posting
of this notice (i.e. not before May 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.music.sixties Discussion of 60's music
RATIONALE: uk.music.sixties
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.

CHARTER:
uk.music.sixties
uk.music.sixties is for the discussion of all aspects of 60s music and
musicians in a UK context. This includes (but is not restricted to)
discussions of UK based 60s bands, 'retro' tours, UK tours by foreign
bands, overseas tours by UK bands, recording industry topics, remixes,
playing techniques, instruments and equipment, technicians and technical
issues, etc.
60s music includes a very wide range of musical styles, so no attempt
will be made to define exactly what 60s music is. Group users are
expected to use common sense in deciding what is on-topic.
Advertising
Advertising is not permitted other than:
Bands, and suppliers of goods and services relevant to 60s music in
the UK, including the operators of venues, and bands seeking to
recruit musicians, may post an invitation to visit their web site or
request details. It should be of 10 lines or fewer and not posted
more than once every month. The subject line should begin "ADVERT: ",
"VENUE: " or "VACANCY: " as appropriate.
Pointers to commercial or other web sites in .signature files are
permitted, however all .signature files should be of 4 lines or
fewer, and preceded by the customary usenet separator "-- " (dash,
dash, space), on a line of its own.
Binaries & Formatting
Encoded binaries (e.g. mp3s, pictures, compressed files, etc.) are
forbidden. Such material belongs on a web or FTP site to which a pointer
may be posted. Cryptographic signatures (e.g. PGP) may be used where
authentication is important and should be as short as possible.
Posts must be readable as plain text. HTML, RTF and similarly formatted
messages are prohibited. To see how to make some common newsreaders
comply with this, read <http://www.usenet.org.uk/ukpost.html>.
Warning
Anyone posting contrary to this charter may be reported to their
"postmaster" and/or Service Provider.
