comp.org.cpsr.announce is a moderated newsgroup which passed its vote for
creation by 981:26 as reported in news.announce.newgroups on 31 Mar 1994.

Group submission address:   cpsr-announce@cpsr.org
Moderator contact address:  cpsr-announce-owner@cpsr.org

For your newsgroups file:
comp.org.cpsr.announce	Computer Professionals for Social Responsibility. (Moderated)

The charter, culled from the call for votes:

  comp.org.cpsr.announce will be used for announcements from the
  Computer Professionals for Social Responsibility and affiliated
  groups, as well as other announcements deemed appropriate by the
  moderators.

  Postings to the comp.org.cpsr.announce newsgroup will be gatewayed from
  the existing list cpsr-announce@cpsr.org and will consist of announcements
  and news items relevant to social issues and computing.  These postings
  will originate with CPSR or one of a selected set of collaborating
  organizations.  Items from the general public will be posted when they
  appear relevant and consistent with the announcement purpose of the
  newsgroup.  This will not be a moderated discussion group, but rather
  a moderated informational broadcast.  Since this newsgroup will be an
  extension of the existing moderated email list, the moderation policy is
  well understood, and may be reviewed in detail by examining the archives
  of the existing list.

  The comp.org.cpsr.talk list will be unmoderated and is intended for free
  form discussion on the same subjects.

  The existing email list to be gatewayed to the moderated newsgroup carries
  information of key importance to the entire computing profession and to
  those interested in the social impact of computing.  The existing email
  list has passed 5600 subscribers and is growing fairly rapidly, yet some
  people have complained that the list was hard to discover and know about.
  Since CPSR is a national organization with 22 chapters, and is involved
  in issues of wide interest, a new newsgroup is an appropriate vehicle
  of communication.

  The moderators are reachable at cpsr-announce-owner@cpsr.org and will
  consist of a mix of some CPSR board personnel and some volunteers.
  Articles may be submitted to cpsr-announce@cpsr.org.
