Please do not vote now.  As soon at this RFD is posted,    I will post an RFD pointer to:       comp.os.os2.apps       comp.os.os2.programmer.misc       comp.os.os2.networking       comp.os.os2.ver1x  Summary of proposals (all unmoderated):     a)  Create comp.os.os2.games    b)  Create comp.os.os2.programmer.tools    c)  Create comp.os.os2.programmer.oop    d)  Create comp.os.os2.networking.tcp-ip    e)  Rename comp.os.os2.networking to comp.os.os2.networking.misc    f)  Remove comp.os.os2.ver1x  Background:     The popularity of 32-bit OS/2 2.1 is growing, thanks to a combination    of lower hardware prices, low-cost availability of OS/2 2.1, and an    attractive feature set of OS/2 2.1.  One of the great strengths of OS/2    2.1 is to run DOS and Windows programs, such as games.     Games are among the most picky programs to configure, many requiring    DOS users to have different CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files to play.    OS/2 2.1 makes it easier because it allows many DOS games to run without    having to reboot the computer.  Under OS/2 2.1, each DOS or Windows game    (or non- game program, for that matter) can have its very own environment,    such as its own AUTOEXEC.BAT file, its own CONFIG.SYS lines, memory setup,    and so forth.  OS/2 2.1 also makes an excellent platform for its own games    as well.  With features such as multi- threading and multi-media, there    are freeware, shareware, and commercial OS/2 games that are already here    or are being developed.  But OS/2 is not just for playing around.     There is a slew of OS/2 2.1 programming tools -- each having advantages    and disadvantages over another.  Since OS/2 2.1 can be likened to a bridge    between UNIX, OS/2 1.3, DOS, and Windows, there have been many OS/2 2.1    compilers and assemblers ported or derived from these platforms (e.g.    emx/gcc, gcc/2, Borland C++/2, et.al).  There are also visual programming    tools such as VisPro/Rexx and VX-Rexx that offer the programmer more    choice in development environments.     Programmers can write programs that interface with OS/2 2.1's object-    oriented subsystem called System Object Model (SOM).  SOM is a language-    independent specification for object-oriented programming.  Programmers    can enhance system-provided objects by overriding the desired methods, for    instance, or change the behaviour of the Workplace Shell (WPS) -- OS/2    2.1's object- oriented shell based on SOM -- such as changing the    behaviour of a "folder" (an object) by modifying a method or two without    having to rewrite a "folder" from scratch.  IBM is working on enhancing    SOM's object-oriented specification by means of Distributed SOM (DSOM)    to allow such actions across a network, OpenDoc, and Taligent Frameworks    as part of IBM's cross-platform strategy with its future Workplace OS and    Pink operating systems.     OS/2 can be connected to other platforms, or to other OS/2 machines,    through networking.  TCP/IP is a popular networking package for OS/2    machines.  This will be more so since a free TCP/IP package is being    worked on right now.     OS/2 1.3 has long been popular in networking environments, although there    is less need for regular people to run OS/2 1.3 due to the popularity of    OS/2 2.1 (lower hardware prices, low-cost availability, and attractive    feature set).  Proposed charters or reasons:     a)  Create comp.os.os2.games        Charter:  Unmoderated discussion of OS/2-specific games (e.g.                  pricing, availability, features, reviews, previews, surveys,                  etc.), and discussion of running DOS and Windows games under                  OS/2 (e.g. compatibility, settings, etc.).                   Note that discussion of DOS and Windows games not related                  to OS/2 belongs in the proper games newsgroup.     b)  Create comp.os.os2.programmer.tools        Charter:  Unmoderated discussion of programming tools (compilers,                  interpreters, assemblers) that generates or executes OS/2                  code, and discussion of running DOS and Windows programming                  tools under OS/2.                   Note that discussion of DOS and Windows programming tools                  not related to OS/2 (e.g. how much does ` for DOS'                  cost) belongs in the proper programming newsgroup.     c)  Create comp.os.os2.programmer.oop        Charter:  Unmoderated discussion of programming for OS/2's object-                  oriented subsystem, including SOM, DSOM, OpenDoc, and                  Taligent Frameworks.                   Note that discussion of object-oriented languages (e.g.                  C++, Smalltalk) belongs in the proper language newsgroup.     d)  Create comp.os.os2.networking.tcp-ip        Charter:  Unmoderated discussion of TCP/IP (e.g. hardware, drivers,                  setup, problems, bugs, etc.) under all versions of OS/2.     e)  Rename comp.os.os2.networking to comp.os.os2.networking.misc        Reason:   The standard practice of Usenet is usually to rename a                  split newsgroup as .misc.        Charter:  comp.os.os2.networking.misc will continue to be the                  newsgroup to discuss miscellaneous OS/2-related networking                  issues in an unmoderated setting.     f)  Remove comp.os.os2.ver1x        Reason:   OS/2 1.3 is now used mostly by companies (such as in                  networking environments or ATMs) managed by long-time                  experts rather than by regular people (i.e. Usenet                  readers).  Schedule:     These proposals have been informally discussed in several comp.os.os2.*    newsgroups throughout January.  Some other proposals that were discussed    informally did not make it in this RFD, but may be included in a future    RFD.  Minor changes were made to the names of some of these proposals    to match existing newsgroup names (i.e. comp.os.os2.programmer.oop rather    than *.oo -- cf. comp.sys.mac.oop; comp.os.os2.networking.tcp-ip rather    than *.tcpip -- cf. comp.protocols.tcp-ip).     The posting of this RFD begins the formal discussion period, and will    last for 21 days.  Discussion is to take place in news.groups.  Please    do not vote now.     If there are no unresolvable objections, a formal Call For Votes (CFV)    will be posted when the formal discussion period is over. --  Mike Levis [email protected]  From [email protected] Thu Feb 24 17:55:07 1994 Path: uunet!bounce-back From: [email protected] (Jay Maynard) Newsgroups: news.announce.newgroups,news.groups,comp.os.os2.announce,comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.announce Subject: CFV: comp.os.os2 reorganization Followup-To: poster Date: 24 Feb 1994 16:00:50 -0500 Organization: Usenet Volunteer Votetakers...the knights who say ACK!

HOW TO VOTE   You should send MAIL (posts to a group are invalid) to       [email protected] (just replying by MAIL to this message should work, if you're not reading this as part of a mailing list).  I will send mail acknowledgements for votes that I receive.  If you receive a correct ack, your vote has been received.  If you do not receive an ack after several days, you need to vote again. It is your responsibility to see that your vote is recorded correctly.     USE THE FORM AS IT IS.  Otherwise your vote may be rejected.  Do not delete anything between the "-=-=-=-=-" lines - and most certainly do not monkey with the group names. Please delete everything but the ballot itself, though; I don't need another copy of the full CFV. You may _NOT_ do a combined vote - i.e., "I vote for all of them" or "I vote against all of them."    For each group, simply add your vote between the brackets on the same line.  Recognized votes are Yes and No.  Capitalization is not important. If you don't want to vote on a particular group, just leave the space blank.  Don't worry about spacing of the columns or any quote characters ">" that your reply inserts.     Anything else may be rejected by the automatic vote counting program. ABSTAINs do not affect the vote outcome.  You may change your vote later by voting again.  The votetaker will respond to received ballots with mail acks.  Addresses and votes of all voters will be published in the vote results.  If you wish to remove your vote and all indication that you have voted from the final list, send a vote with CANCEL in each voting position.     Standard Guidelines for voting apply.  Only one vote per person, and only one vote per account, will be counted.  For each proposal to pass, 100 more YES votes than NO votes and twice as many YES votes as NO votes must be received.   Simple instructions: Delete everything above the top "-=-=-=-" line, delete everything below the bottom "-=-=-=-" line.  Give your real name on the line that asks for it.  For each group, place a YES or NO in the brackets next to it to vote for or against it.   [[ news.announce.newgroups moderator's note:  IMPORTANT!  A vote of "YES" for comp.os.os2.ver1x means you agree it should be deleted; one of "NO" means it should be retained.  This is exactly opposite the meanings of YES/NO votes for the other groups in the proposal. -- tale ]]  -=-=-=-=-=- Don't Delete Anything Between These Lines =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-  comp.os.os2 reorganization Ballot     (Don't remove this marker)  Give your real name here:  [Your Vote]  Group ----------------------------------------------------------------------- [         ]  comp.os.os2.games [         ]  comp.os.os2.programmer.tools [         ]  comp.os.os2.programmer.oop [         ]  comp.os.os2.networking.tcp-ip [         ]  comp.os.os2.networking.misc [         ]  comp.os.os2.ver1x  -=-=-=-=-=- Don't Delete Anything Between These Lines =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- --  Jay Maynard, EMT-P, K5ZC, PP-ASEL | Never ascribe to malice that which can [email protected]      | adequately be explained by stupidity.

IBM is working on enhancing    SOM's object-oriented specification by means of Distributed SOM (DSOM)    to allow such actions across a network, OpenDoc, and Taligent Frameworks    as part of IBM's cross-platform strategy with its future Workplace OS and    Pink operating systems.     OS/2 can be connected to other platforms, or to other OS/2 machines,    through networking.  TCP/IP is a popular networking package for OS/2    machines.  This will be more so since a free TCP/IP package is being    worked on right now.     OS/2 1.3 has long been popular in networking environments, although there    is less need for regular people to run OS/2 1.3 due to the popularity of    OS/2 2.1 (lower hardware prices, low-cost availability, and attractive    feature set).  NOTE...  Due to a clerical error, my account on this machine was deleted on 1 March. Some ballots in the ongoing vote have been lost, as the files in my account were restored from a backup taken the evening of 28 February. It was restored the afternoon of 1 March.  If you have not received an acknowledgement for your vote, or if your acknowledgement was sent between noon US Central Time (1800 GMT) on 28 February and 2 PM US Central Time (2000 GMT) on 1 March, and you have not received another acknowledgement from me since then, you need to vote again, as your vote has been lost. If your acknowledgement was sent outside that time, you should be OK. If you're not sure, please feel free to vote again; duplicate votes will be weeded out during the counting process.   This note was posted to the same groups as the original Call for Votes; it is being repeated here to ensure that interested people see it.  HOW TO VOTE   You should send MAIL (posts to a group are invalid) to       [email protected] (just replying by MAIL to this message should work, if you're not reading this as part of a mailing list).  I will send mail acknowledgements for votes that I receive.  If you receive a correct ack, your vote has been received.  If you do not receive an ack after several days, you need to vote again. It is your responsibility to see that your vote is recorded correctly.     USE THE FORM AS IT IS.  Otherwise your vote may be rejected.  Do not delete anything between the "-=-=-=-=-" lines - and most certainly do not monkey with the group names. Please delete everything but the ballot itself, though; I don't need another copy of the full CFV. You may _NOT_ do a combined vote - i.e., "I vote for all of them" or "I vote against all of them."    For each group, simply add your vote between the brackets on the same line.  Recognized votes are Yes and No.  Capitalization is not important. If you don't want to vote on a particular group, just leave the space blank.  Don't worry about spacing of the columns or any quote characters ">" that your reply inserts.     Anything else may be rejected by the automatic vote counting program. ABSTAINs do not affect the vote outcome.  You may change your vote later by voting again.  The votetaker will respond to received ballots with mail acks.  Addresses and votes of all voters will be published in the vote results.  If you wish to remove your vote and all indication that you have voted from the final list, send a vote with CANCEL in each voting position.     Standard Guidelines for voting apply.  Only one vote per person, and only one vote per account, will be counted.  For each proposal to pass, 100 more YES votes than NO votes and twice as many YES votes as NO votes must be received.   Simple instructions: Delete everything above the top "-=-=-=-" line, delete everything below the bottom "-=-=-=-" line.  Give your real name on the line that asks for it.  For each group, place a YES or NO in the brackets next to it to vote for or against it.   [[ news.announce.newgroups moderator's note:  IMPORTANT!  A vote of "YES" for comp.os.os2.ver1x means you agree it should be deleted; one of "NO" means it should be retained.  This is exactly opposite the meanings of YES/NO votes for the other groups in the proposal. -- tale ]]  -=-=-=-=-=- Don't Delete Anything Between These Lines =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-  comp.os.os2 reorganization Ballot     (Don't remove this marker)  Give your real name here:  [Your Vote]  Group ----------------------------------------------------------------------- [         ]  comp.os.os2.games [         ]  comp.os.os2.programmer.tools [         ]  comp.os.os2.programmer.oop [         ]  comp.os.os2.networking.tcp-ip [         ]  comp.os.os2.networking.misc [         ]  comp.os.os2.ver1x  -=-=-=-=-=- Don't Delete Anything Between These Lines =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-  BOUNCE ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS  The voters in the following list may not have received mail acknowledgements due to one problem or another.

Note that discussion of DOS and Windows games not related                  to OS/2 belongs in the proper games newsgroup.     b)  Create comp.os.os2.programmer.tools        Charter:  Unmoderated discussion of programming tools (compilers,                  interpreters, assemblers) that generates or executes OS/2                  code, and discussion of running DOS and Windows programming                  tools under OS/2.                   Note that discussion of DOS and Windows programming tools                  not related to OS/2 (e.g. how much does ` for DOS'                  cost) belongs in the proper programming newsgroup.     c)  Create comp.os.os2.programmer.oop        Charter:  Unmoderated discussion of programming for OS/2's object-                  oriented subsystem, including SOM, DSOM, OpenDoc, and                  Taligent Frameworks.                   Note that discussion of object-oriented languages (e.g.                  C++, Smalltalk) belongs in the proper language newsgroup.     d)  Create comp.os.os2.networking.tcp-ip        Charter:  Unmoderated discussion of TCP/IP (e.g. hardware, drivers,                  setup, problems, bugs, etc.) under all versions of OS/2.     e)  Rename comp.os.os2.networking to comp.os.os2.networking.misc        Reason:   The standard practice of Usenet is usually to rename a                  split newsgroup as .misc.        Charter:  comp.os.os2.networking.misc will continue to be the                  newsgroup to discuss miscellaneous OS/2-related networking                  issues in an unmoderated setting.     f)  Remove comp.os.os2.ver1x        Reason:   OS/2 1.3 is now used mostly by companies (such as in                  networking environments or ATMs) managed by long-time                  experts rather than by regular people (i.e. Usenet                  readers).  RATIONALE     The popularity of 32-bit OS/2 2.1 is growing, thanks to a combination    of lower hardware prices, low-cost availability of OS/2 2.1, and an    attractive feature set of OS/2 2.1.  One of the great strengths of OS/2    2.1 is to run DOS and Windows programs, such as games.     Games are among the most picky programs to configure, many requiring    DOS users to have different CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files to play.    OS/2 2.1 makes it easier because it allows many DOS games to run without    having to reboot the computer.  Under OS/2 2.1, each DOS or Windows game    (or non- game program, for that matter) can have its very own environment,    such as its own AUTOEXEC.BAT file, its own CONFIG.SYS lines, memory setup,    and so forth.  OS/2 2.1 also makes an excellent platform for its own games    as well.  With features such as multi- threading and multi-media, there    are freeware, shareware, and commercial OS/2 games that are already here    or are being developed.  But OS/2 is not just for playing around.     There is a slew of OS/2 2.1 programming tools -- each having advantages    and disadvantages over another.  Since OS/2 2.1 can be likened to a bridge    between UNIX, OS/2 1.3, DOS, and Windows, there have been many OS/2 2.1    compilers and assemblers ported or derived from these platforms (e.g.    emx/gcc, gcc/2, Borland C++/2, et.al).  There are also visual programming    tools such as VisPro/Rexx and VX-Rexx that offer the programmer more    choice in development environments.     Programmers can write programs that interface with OS/2 2.1's object-    oriented subsystem called System Object Model (SOM).  SOM is a language-    independent specification for object-oriented programming.  Programmers    can enhance system-provided objects by overriding the desired methods, for    instance, or change the behaviour of the Workplace Shell (WPS) -- OS/2    2.1's object-oriented shell based on SOM -- such as changing the    behaviour of a "folder" (an object) by modifying a method or two without    having to rewrite a "folder" from scratch.  IBM is working on enhancing    SOM's object-oriented specification by means of Distributed SOM (DSOM)    to allow such actions across a network, OpenDoc, and Taligent Frameworks    as part of IBM's cross-platform strategy with its future Workplace OS and    Pink operating systems.     OS/2 can be connected to other platforms, or to other OS/2 machines,    through networking.  TCP/IP is a popular networking package for OS/2    machines.  This will be more so since a free TCP/IP package is being    worked on right now.
