This whole subject is getting quite annoying. People keep taking
Victor's requests for traffic projections (information that I still
have not seen, in either the RFD or subsequent threads) as some sort
of personal attack. Did no one read the aus.* admin FAQ about group
creation??

http://aus.news-admin.org/Faq/aus_faq

"You should include the following information:

4. An estimate of expected traffic for this group and the current
traffic on the net related to this topic."

If so, you've hid it well behind all the whining. As mentioned, I
have yet to see a good analysis of what kind of traffic you expect,
merely complaints that Victor is asking for it. IF someone has
posted this information, I'd love to see it.

Please quote an example of this outrageous behavior.

I just can't understand what is so wrong about expecting the Proponant
to read and follow the aus.* FAQ for new group creation...
