This is a Request For Discussion for the formation of several new newsgroups
under the misc.kids hierarchy.  The groups are: misc.kids.info, 
misc.kids.consumers, misc.kids.health, and misc.kids.pregnancy.

Note: Other proposals of interest to misc.kids, and currently in the
discussion stage are: misc.education.home-school, rec.arts.books.children,
misc.education.learning-disab, and sci.med.pregnancy (a separate proposal
>from misc.kids.pregnancy). 

misc.kids.info

  Charter: For the posting of misc.kids FAQ files on a regular basis.

  Rationale:  There are more than sixty misc.kids FAQ files, and misc.kids
    is a very high volume group.  The primary reason that FAQ files have 
    not been posted on misc.kids on a regular basis is a concern over volume. 
    Having a separate newsgroups for the FAQs allows sites to determine if 
    they want to receive them, yet makes them generally available, reduces 
    the load of FAQ maintainers, and enters them into the periodic posting 
    archives.

  Moderator: Robyn Kozierok

  Type: Moderated.

misc.kids.consumers

  Charter: Discussion of products related to kids.

  Rationale:  The volume on misc.kids is getting very high, with around
    200 messages a day.  Splitting off a few topics which could sustain
    their own groups could make the volume on misc.kids more manageable.
    misc.kids.consumers covers a sufficiently clearcut topic that it
    can readily form its own group, and it represents about 9% of the
    traffic on misc.kids.  (The traffic estimates in this RFD are based
    on two analyses of misc.kids traffic from April 16 to May 2.)

  Type: Unmoderated.

misc.kids.health

  Charter: Discussion of matters related to children's health.

  Rationale: See rationale for misc.kids.consumer.  Health related
    topics cover about 8% of postings to misc.kids.

  Type: Unmoderated.

misc.kids.pregnancy

  Charter: Discussion of matters related to pregnancy, including 
    pre-pregnancy planning, infertility, childbirth, and the postpartum
    period.

  Rationale: See rationale for misc.kids.consumers.  13.4% of the
    traffic on misc.kids. 

  Note: sci.med.pregnancy has also been proposed.  This is a separate
    proposal, not necessarily competing with misc.kids.pregnancy.
    sci.med.pregnancy would cover the medical aspects of pregnancy.
    misc.kids.pregnancy would be a non-technical group in which people
    could share a variety of concerns about pregnancy (topics discussed
    in misc.kids have included some medical topics, like gestational
    diabetes, but also some distinctly non-medical ones, such as
    where to find maternity clothing, and what people call their
    babies in utero).  Both sci.med.pregnancy and misc.kids.pregnancy
    are being pursued as separate RFDs (to proceed to separate votes).

CHARTERS

misc.kids.info

  Charter: For the periodic posting of informational posts and FAQ files 
    related to groups in the misc.kids hierarchy.  Occasional one-time 
    announcements of interest to misc.kids readers (such as juvenile product 
    recall, misc.kids picnics or photoalbums) may be crossposted here from 
    misc.kids (and/or the appropriate subgroup(s)).  However, as a low volume 
    newsgroup, birth announcements, etc. are not appropriate for this group.
    Posts to this group should be informational; discussion and questions 
    will not appear here.  No advertising.  Posters should be aware that the 
    moderator cannot do distributions for other regions, and that there may 
    be moderation delays.

  Rationale:  There are more than sixty misc.kids FAQ files, and misc.kids
    is a very high volume group.  The primary reason that FAQ files have 
    not been posted on misc.kids on a regular basis is a concern over volume. 
    Having a separate newsgroups for the FAQs allows sites to determine if 
    they want to receive them, yet makes them generally available, reduces 
    the load of FAQ maintainers, and enters them into the periodic posting 
    archives.  The custom already followed in other Usenet hierarchies 
    (such as rec.music, rec.radio, rec.arts.anime, rec.arts.comics, and 
    rec.arts.startrek) is to put such FAQ postings in a .info group, and
    also have that group allow some one time informational postings, such
    as news, so it is proposed that this group follow the same convention.

  Moderator: Robyn Kozierok (email address robyn@ai.mit.edu, but separate
    email addresses, kids-info@ai.mit.edu and kids-info-request@ai.mit.edu,
    will be set up for moderation purposes)

    Daniel Faigin (faigin@solarium.aero.org) has volunteered to assist
    FAQ maintainers in converting their FAQs to the *.answers format,
    so that FAQs can be crossposted there, and in setting themselves
    up with autoposting scripts.

  Type: Moderated.

  Charter: Discussion of matters related to children's health.

  Rationale: See rationale for misc.kids.consumer.  Health related
    topics cover about 8% of postings to misc.kids.

misc.kids.pregnancy

  Charter: Discussion of matters related to pregnancy, including 
    pre-pregnancy planning, infertility, childbirth, and the recovery
    of the mother during the postpartum period.

  Rationale: See rationale for misc.kids.consumers.  13.4% of the
    traffic on misc.kids.
