"You don't have to bother to promote the group or to post on topic, or
to even write a proper charter with proper newsgroups file line in a
proper newgroup message. I'll just create it."

That's the message you just sent to Our Dear Proponent.

In the part of the quote you excised, you already told the proponent
that you had created the newsgroup. I hadn't even offered my opinion yet.
Exactly how did you ignore my not-yet-offered opinion as you had ALREADY
created the newsgroup?

You don't get that you're jumping the gun here or WHY you are in the
wrong? You aren't the proponent. He is. At least allow him the courtesy
of maintaining control of his own proposal. There's always the chance
that he'll fix the charter or short description and drop the false claim
of justification. Maybe someone else will comment other than me, given
that by tradition, there is a one-week comment period. Maybe he'll change
the group name. Maybe he'll decide to wait till there's an actual product
released into the marketplace that users can discuss.
