Default 2nd RFD for moderated UK amateur radio group

Hello fellow hams of rec.radio.*!

Please forgive the intrusion, just a quick heads up that the 2nd version of
the proposal to create a moderated UK amateur radio group has been
published.

Please point your newsreader at uk.net.news.config and join the debate. If
you are in favour of the group please post to the RFD thread saying as
much, neutral voters in uk.* like to see as much support as possible for a
proposal before they cast a YES vote.

The existing group, uk.radio.amateur, has been a beacon of trouble for many
years, as I'm sure most of you are aware. Indeed, most of you will have
witnessed spillover from that group to yours many times over the years,
with a couple of rra.* groups currently going through it now. It is hoped
that by introducing a moderated forum to uk.* for the hams to gather in
civilly that the heat will, over time, turn down and spillover will reduce.


Thanks for reading!
