Hell yes.  What we need is someone to brush up on newsgroup creation
procedure and put a call-for-vote into the appropriate groups as well as
this list.  If I recall correctly, the process takes about a month.

BTW, comp.unix is not appropriate (gnu-win32 doesn't have anything to do
with Unix).  Probably should be somewhere in comp.os.ms-windows.*,
comp.emulators.*, or gnu.*..  Personally, I'd like it best in something
like gnu.cygnus.win32.

| How about comp.unix.gnu-win32?
