RESULT: sci.bio.{botany,misc,systematics}




All three proposed newsgroups passed and should be available at Usenet
sites around the world within a few weeks.  If you took the time to vote,
thanks!  289 valid votes is a respectable turnout, and should encourage
many Usenet administrators to carry these new groups.

Below is an edited (short) version of the official RESULTS article.  The
full RESULTS article may be obtained via anonymous FTP from ftp.uu.net,
in the directory usenet/news.announce.newgroups/sci/sci.bio.
