I've recently submitted for publication, the 4th Request For Discussion (RFD) for the proposed Usenet newsgroup - rec.pets.ferrets - to the powers that be at Usenet. Today, I received confirmation of publication in alt.pets.ferrets , rec.pets , news.groups and news.announce.newgroups . We'd sincerely appreciate any and all discussion as well as notes of support from all concerned ferret folk reading this message. We ask that you either post your comments in the appropriate thread in - news.groups . You may post them to alt.pets.ferrets or rec.pets as long as you also cc them to news.groups . Hopefully, we can go to a vote within a month, though we could stretch it for as long as 6 weeks if need be.
