[ptp-dev] Please vote: elimination of the ptp newsgroup

[Greg Watson <greg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The technology.ptp newsgroup cannot be moved from the Technology to  
the Tools project; the old group must be removed and a new group  
created. I suggest that we don't create a new newsgroup, but use the  
ptp-user mailing list instead. We can add something to the web site  
to direct new users to this mailing list.

The reason for this is that both Beth and I (the developers who  
mostly read/respond to the newsgroup) find it a significant chore.  
This is the only newsgroup that either of us read, so we have to  
specially fire up a newsreader or go to the newsgroup web page. By  
using a mailing list instead of a newsgroup, we will be much more  
responsive to user questions and problems.

Please vote +1 or -1 for this proposal.
