Summary: creating a new newsgroup, soc.culture.egyptian
Lines: 49
Name of Proposed Newsgroup
==========================
soc.culture.egyptian
Type
====
unmoderated
Charter
=======
A cultural newsgroup which would primarly discuss the rich heritage,
history, and cultural attributes that give Egypt its unique
historical identity. Issues discussed would also include topics
relevant to the development of Egyptian communities, in the realms
of science, technology and culture.
Purpose of the Group
====================
. Discuss the cultural attributes and heritage that give Egypt its
unique identity.
. Discuss topics relevant to the development of Modern Egypt.
. Provide a channel through which prospective travellers to Egypt
can seek information and recommendations from native Egyptians.
Newsgroup Creation
==================
The discussion for this group will last from Monday, Nov. 2, 1992
until Friday Dec. 4, 1992. The discussion should take place in
news.groups. All followups should be under this same title heading.
I am now inviting all netters in general and Egyptian netters in
particular to take part in the discussion. Any suggestions, comments
or problems may be included in the discussion or sent directly to
kinawi@acs.ucalgary.ca
It might be of interest to mention that the creation of such a news-
group was discussed on Egypt-net, a mailing list that has over 450
members, last July.
At the end of the Discussion Period, voting will be held. The rules
on how to vote will be posted here.

Request For Discussion
=======================
Group Name: soc.culture.egyptian
Status: Moderated
Distribution: World-wide
Summary: A newsgroup for the discussion of
Egyptian culture and heritage.
This is a formal request for discussion (RFD) on the subject of
creating a moderated Usenet newsgroup, soc.culture.egyptian.
Charter
=======
A moderated cultural newsgroup which would provide a world-wide forum
for discussion of the rich heritage, history, and cultural attributes
that give Egypt its unique historical identity. Issues discussed
would also include topics relevant to the development of Egyptian
communities, in the realms of science, technology and culture.
Rationale
=========
There is already a mailing list for people interested in Egypt, named
Egypt-Net <Egypt-net-request@cs.sunysb.edu>. There is also the
newsgroup alt.culture.egyptian which - being in the "alt" hierarchy -
is not carried by most sites.
The intent is to create soc.culture.egyptian as an alternative and,
for some, a more convenient vehicle to communicate about Egypt, so as
to reach as wide an audience as possible. Also, to provide a forum
for discussion of topics relevant to Egypt such as:
- Archaeology
- Egyptology
- Egyptian Travel information.
- Egyptian Culture, literature, music, and art in general.
- Egyptian History and geography.
- Egyptian Customs, traditions, food, etc.
- Egyptian Sports.
- Egyptian Political and social issues.
Providing moderation to control the content of postings will provide a
more interesting and informative flow of articles encouraging more
people to read the newsgroup and actively participate.
Newsgroup Creation:
==================
(a) RFD
---
The discussion period will last for nearly one month, starting from
Nov. 3, 1994 and ending Dec. 1, 1994. If appropriate, a revised RFD
will be posted after 14 days, reflecting suggestions and opinions
provided by the discussion.
The details of the operation of this newsgroup will be considered
during the discussion period. Items to be discussed include, but are
not limited to:
- Moderation policies
- Submission guidelines
- Moderator(s) selection
- Etiquette
As per the USENET guidelines, the discussion would take place in
news.groups. All followups should be under this same title heading
"Re: RFD: soc.culture.egyptian"
After the discussion period, and if there is a general agreement, a
Call for Votes (CFV) will be issued.
(b) RFD Distribution
----------------
The RFD is cross-posted to the following newsgroups:
news.groups, news.announce.newgroups, soc.culture.arabic,
soc.culture.african, rec.travel.misc, sci.archaeology
(c) RFD Followups
-------------
Follow-ups will be directed to news.groups, as per USENET guidelines
for newsgroup creation.

Request For Discussion [revised]
================================
Status changed to unmoderated
Group Name: soc.culture.egyptian
Status: Unmoderated
Distribution: World-wide
Summary: A newsgroup for the discussion of
Egyptian culture and heritage.
This is a revised formal request for discussion (RFD) on the subject of
creating a unmoderated Usenet newsgroup, soc.culture.egyptian.
Charter
=======
A unmoderated cultural newsgroup which would provide a world-wide forum for
discussion of the rich heritage, history, and cultural attributes that give
Egypt its unique historical identity. Issues discussed would also include
topics relevant to the development of Egyptian communities, in the realms of
science, technology and culture.
Rationale
=========
There is already a mailing list for people interested in Egypt, named
Egypt-Net <Egypt-net-request@cs.sunysb.edu>. There is also the newsgroup
alt.culture.egyptian which - being in the "alt" hierarchy - is not carried by
most sites.
The intent is to create soc.culture.egyptian as an alternative and, for some,
a more convenient vehicle to communicate about Egypt, so as to reach as wide
an audience as possible. Also, to provide a forum for discussion of topics
relevant to Egypt such as:
- Archaeology
- Egyptology
- Egyptian Travel information.
- Egyptian Culture, literature, music, and art in general.
- Egyptian History and geography.
- Egyptian Customs, traditions, food, etc.
- Egyptian Living/Environment/etc.
- Egyptian Sports.
- Egyptian Political and social issues.
The discussion that followed the posting of the original RFD on Nov. 3, 1994
suggest that:
- there is a need for such a newsgroup,
- the newsgroup should be unmoderated
and hence the need for this revised RFD.
Newsgroup Creation:
==================
(a) RFD
---
The discussion period of this revised RFD will last for nearly two weeks,
starting from Dec. 1, 1994 and ending Dec. 14, 1994.
As per the USENET guidelines, the discussion would take place in news.groups.
All followups should be under this same title heading:
"Re: 2nd RFD: soc.culture.egyptian"
The discussions so far prove that there is a general agreement to create this
newsgroup. Hence, and unless other strong objections surface, a Call for Votes
(CFV) will be issued on Dec. 15, 1994
(b) RFD Distribution
----------------
This revised RFD is cross-posted to the following newsgroups:
news.groups, news.announce.newgroups, soc.culture.arabic,
soc.culture.african, rec.travel.misc, sci.archaeology
(c) RFD Followups
-------------
Follow-ups will be directed to news.groups, as per USENET guidelines for
newsgroup creation.
