---- global rules for hamster.all -------------------------------------
The hamster.*-hierarchy was created to provide a forum for users of
Hamster, a proxy server for news and mail.

As this is the main thing all users of hamster.* have in common, there
are only a few general rules in this hierarchy:

hamster.* will be divided into second level hierarchies according to
languages spoken.
For discussions in a certain language an own second level hierarchy
has to be created (if it does not already exist). As long as there is no
separate language subhierarchy for a specific language, hamster.general
should be used with the aid of a language-tag"

Every time, such a second level hierarchy is created a special set of
rules SHOULD be made, respecting the individual common use of the
audience there, including

* a group to discuss the founding of new and the removal of old
groups in that subhierarchy (like hamster.admin for hamster.*)

* rules for the creation and removal process
