The official post to this ng fell foul of crossposting limits :-(

The discussion of the two RFDs has been unusually fractious and
factional, even for unnc. There were several groups each opposing all
others, whose positions are summarized below:
However that summary, whilst technically correct, does not reflect the RFDs,
google has the disussion in full.
That gps discussion should be in uk.rec.(existing ng).gps, or
uk.(existing ng).gps, etc. but no such RFD has been raised for any of
the about 26 ngs suggested by this group.
That uk.tech.gps should be created, which would require a different RFD
and would create a completely different newsgroup. They are unwilling to
RFD it and prefer to oppose this RFD.
Because no one actually wants them. Every argument for the proposed group
was really one for (yet another) specialised application that would have
been better addressed in an existing group or - if pushed - in existing
group.gps
That a choice be given between the various disparate and competing
options, or groups of options.
That anything associated with the proponent should be rejected.
Many people support the creation of uk.rec.gps.
I wonder.
Google - and think -hard- before you vote.
Cheerio,
