uk.net.news.config Charles Lindsey as Deputy Control


FAST TRACK ANNOUNCEMENT RENAME uk.rec.boats.power to uk.rec.boats.motor
=======================

[snip]

PROPOSAL (to be activated in two stages)

1. Create a new unmoderated newsgroup uk.rec.boats.motor with the
following charter

CHARTER: uk.rec.boats.motor

uk.rec.boats.motor will discuss motor boating in UK waters and the
activities of UK motor boaters elsewhere. Motor boat sports (eg racing
and water skiing) are valid topics except where covered by a more
specific group.

[snip]

2. Remove existing unmoderated newsgroup uk.rec.boats.power, this to be
delayed at the discretion of Control until the bulk of discussion has
moved to the new group.

Has there been a successful "renaming" (effectively a linked create and
remove) before? This one looks well thought out to me.
