OK, good.  I have a few tweeks for that wording too.  How's this?

   The ca.* newsgroups are only for discussion of subjects related to
   California.  They were made for residents of California and others
   interested in California.  They are intended for topics directly relevant
   to residents of California.  The default policy is that any topic not at
   least partly related to California is considered off-topic, though the
   specific newsgroup charters may list exceptions.
