Maybe the time has come to set up another database newsgroup. The
trouble with COMP.DATABASES is twofold. Firstly the volume of stuff
posted makes it impossible to read it all, expecially when time is
limited, and secondly, from my point of view (and I suspect others)
most of the postings are too much problem solving ("I've got this
problem with Oracle") and not enough discussion.
How about the following:
COMP.DATABASE - as now
COMP.DATABASE.THEORY - discussion of db theory and paradigms
COMP.DATABASE.AI \
or - discussion of expert databases etc.
COMP.AI.DATABASE / (if sufficient demand)

CALL FOR VOTES: comp.database.theory
STATUS: Unmoderated
CHARTER: Discussion of topics relating to advances in database
technology including debate on theoretical, prototypical
and performance aspects of Database Systems, Data Modelling
and Logical and Physical Database Design.
NOTE: Specifically excluded are discussions relating to
implemented DBMS whether commercial or not.
RATIONALE: The RFD showed two failings of the COMP.DATABASE newsgroup
which this group will attempt to remedy.
a. The number of postings prohibits reading of all the
information posted.
b. The relevance of many of the postings is limited.
Note that this is NOT designed to compete with or replace
the dbworld mailing list. Clearly calls for papers etc.
will probably be posted to both.
MECHANICS: This vote will run from the time of posting through to
23:59 GMT Sunday, 12 April 1992. Only votes received by
email as specified below will be counted. If the vote
for the group passes by the usual criteria of 100 more
YES than NO and twice as many YES as NO votes, then the
group will be created.
Votes and result will be acknowledged en masse in a
posting on Wednesday, 22 April 1992.
CASTING VOTES: Send email to:
DBSRG@levels.unisa.edu.AU
Stating either:
I vote FOR the proposal to set up COMP.DATABASE.THEORY
or
I vote AGAINST the proposal to set up COMP.DATABASE.THEORY

Maybe the time has come to set up another database newsgroup. The
trouble with COMP.DATABASES is twofold. Firstly the volume of stuff
posted makes it impossible to read it all, expecially when time is
limited, and secondly, from my point of view (and I suspect others)
most of the postings are too much problem solving ("I've got this
problem with Oracle") and not enough discussion.
How about the following:
COMP.DATABASE - as now
COMP.DATABASE.THEORY - discussion of db theory and paradigms
COMP.DATABASE.AI \
or - discussion of expert databases etc.
COMP.AI.DATABASE / (if sufficient demand)

CALL FOR VOTES: comp.database.theory
STATUS: Unmoderated
CHARTER: Discussion of topics relating to advances in database
technology including debate on theoretical, prototypical
and performance aspects of Database Systems, Data Modelling
and Logical and Physical Database Design.
NOTE: Specifically excluded are discussions relating to
implemented DBMS whether commercial or not.
RATIONALE: The RFD showed two failings of the COMP.DATABASE newsgroup
which this group will attempt to remedy.
a. The number of postings prohibits reading of all the
information posted.
b. The relevance of many of the postings is limited.
Note that this is NOT designed to compete with or replace
the dbworld mailing list. Clearly calls for papers etc.
will probably be posted to both.
MECHANICS: This vote will run from the time of posting through to
23:59 GMT Sunday, 12 April 1992. Only votes received by
email as specified below will be counted. If the vote
for the group passes by the usual criteria of 100 more
YES than NO and twice as many YES as NO votes, then the
group will be created.
Votes and result will be acknowledged en masse in a
posting on Wednesday, 22 April 1992.
CASTING VOTES: Send email to:
DBSRG@levels.unisa.edu.AU
Stating either:
I vote FOR the proposal to set up COMP.DATABASE.THEORY
or
I vote AGAINST the proposal to set up COMP.DATABASE.THEORY
