Woodbury) Subject: RFD: comp.sys.mac.advocacy Message-ID: <[email protected]> Followup-To: news.groups Sender: [email protected] (David C Lawrence) Organization: UUNET Technologies, Inc Date: Tue, 14 Jul 1992 02:02:01 GMT Approved: [email protected], [email protected] Lines: 72 A few weeks ago I placed a feeler for comp.sys.mac.advocacy in comp.sys.mac.misc to see what sort of reaction there would be to the concept. As expected, there was vast indifference, but the folks who responded produced a 12:5 ratio in favor of considering the group. This is a formal Request For Discussion. Folks in support of the group are invited to review the proposed charter included here and to refine it in light of their own views and the expressed opinions of the proponents. Opponents are free to comment upon the proposal, and we are free to respond to their opinions, but the proponents have the duty to produce a charter for the group within thirty days of the posting of this announcement to news.announce.newgroups and other relevant groups. In accord with the Usenet Guidelines for creating a new group, discussion of the proposal shall take place in news.groups. Occasional summaries or pointers to the discussion may be placed in various comp.sys.mac hierarchy groups if appropriate. The Proposal ------------ Group Name: comp.sys.mac.advocacy Summary: Comparative discussion of Macintosh vs. other computers Status: Unmoderated Charter: Comp.sys.mac.advocacy is a place to carry out discssion about the Macintosh computer family and software in comparison with computers and software from other companies. All comparitive articles about the Macintosh should be placed here if posted to the comp.sys.mac newsgroups sub-tree. No articles posted here should be cross-posted to other comp.sys.mac newsgroups. Rational: The existence of *.advocacy sub-groups is a recent innovation in netnews. There are currently 5 or 6 *.advocacy newsgroups and they have had a mixed success. In most cases they *have* succeded in limiting the appearance of comparative articles in the other groups of a hierarchy where they appear. The purpose of an .advocacy group is not to create a ghetto where comparative articles are exiled to, but to control topic drift and provide a narrower focus to other groups in the hierarchy. It is, however, appropriate for posters to consider the group as the followup-to group when making comparative analyses of the Mac and other computers or other computers and the Mac. Administrivia: If the proposal is considered appropriate and sound by the proponents at the end of thirty days of discussion (or sooner if appropriate) a Call For Votes will be issued with the (possibly) revised charter. At the time for the CFV, unless someone with a better connected site (e.g. directly on the internet, not MX'd) volunteers, votes will be sent to "[email protected]" for tabulation. The csma-vote address will not exist until the CFV is issued. The particulars of the vote format will be contained in the CFV, but will likely be fairly standard (reqesting a standard text for the vote, but not rejecting clear votes that are non-compliant.) In the case of duplicate votes, the latest vote received before the voting deadline will be the determining vote. Votes will be acknowledged by email and the poll list will be posted (mass ack) at least twice by the vote taker). Following final tabulation, results will be posted in the appropriate places, and the appropriate waiting periods andor action/non-action will occur. (personal note: this site is subject to severe lag in news propagation on occasion, email is not considered to be a problem. Those with long net.memories may recall that I was opposed to the creation of the first .advocacy group (comp.sys.amiga.advocacy,) but their track record indicates that they do serve a purpose. -ggw ) -- Gregory G.

As expected, there was vast indifference, but the folks who responded produced a 12:5 ratio in favor of considering the group. This was followed by the RFD. The RFD also produced no real controversy (except for one person who is opposed to .advocacy groups on principle). The margin of preference did not seem to change much. This is the Call For Votes: Please review the charter below and then vote if you feel interested in expressing your opinion on the proposed newsgroup. The Reply-To header of this message should be pointing to the correct address. Formal voting instructions are below. In accord with the Usenet Guidelines for creating a new group, discussion of the proposal took place in news.groups.

Voting Instructions: Votes in this opinion poll will be accepted ONLY at the address: [email protected] Votes mailed elsewhere, or votes that are posted will not be counted. This address should be in the Reply-To: header of this article. This address should be reachable by most properly configured machines and email systems. The address is an MX exchanger at Duke. Alternative addresses that might be necessary: csmavote%[email protected] csmavote%[email protected] ...!duke.cs.duke.edu!wolves!csmavote [email protected] The vote should clearly have (preferably) one occurrence of the strings YES or Yes or yes or NO or No or no or ABSTAIN or Abstain or abstain in the Subject: header of the message envelope. No text is required in the body of the message. Votes that are not machine parseable will be handled by hand. The vote must be stated clearly. If the context of the vote implies that it is conditional, the vote cannot be counted under the current guidelines. Only the most recent vote received from any particular address will be counted in the final tally. Received votes will be replied to automatically. Mass Acknowledgements will be generated weekly. Final results will be tallied after the close of voting and sent to the appropriate places for posting and action (or inaction as determined by the results.) No votes will be accepted after 23:59 EDT, 7 September 1992. -- Gregory G.
