Description

This article is from the Natl Writers Union FAQ, by Vicki Richman nwufaq@vicric.com with numerous contributions by others.

5.0.1. What is alt.union.natl-writers?

Well, if you continue to Question 5.1, you'll have the
charter for alt.union.natl-writers.

But if you're asking what a Usenet newsgroup is, and what
connection this one has to the union, read on.

The Usenet newsgroup a.u.n-w is by and for members of the
National Writers Union, for other publishing professionals,
for labor unionists and for civil libertarians. It was
created by Vicki Richman, following the example of Allen
Schaaf and his colleagues, who created alt.union.iatse for
the International Alliance of Theatrical and Stage
Employees.

The charter for a.u.n-w is the answer to Question 5.1 of
this FAQ.
