International ( comp.software.international )

From [email protected] Wed Mar  9 23:29:27 1994 Path: uunet!bounce-back From: [email protected] (Daniel R. Kegel) Newsgroups: news.announce.newgroups,news.groups,comp.std.internat,alt.chinese.text,alt.chinese.text.big5 Subject: RFD: comp.software.international Followup-To: news.groups Date: 25 Feb 1994 16:45:57 -0500 Organization: caltech Lines: 68 Sender: [email protected] Approved: [email protected] Message-ID: <[email protected]> NNTP-Posting-Host: rodan.uu.net Xref: uunet news.announce.newgroups:4692 news.groups:96690 comp.std.internat:3171 alt.chinese.text:33259 alt.chinese.text.big5:28047  [This is a proposal to create a newsgroup to discuss internationalization  of software.  Much software- especially on the Internet- still can't  handle non-English text, let alone mixed language text.  It's time to  have a newsgroup where people can talk about how to make software work  across language barriers. -dank] [This proposal has already been floated in various forms on news.groups,  and we seem to be settling in on a name for the group.  -dank]  The vote for comp.software.non-latin.east-asian was very close. I bet many people voted NO because it had a narrow charter and awkward name.  I propose instead the new group comp.software.international. CHARTER:     The unmoderated Usenet newsgroup comp.software.international will provide a      forum to discuss software that can handle 'international', i.e.      non-English, text.  The encouraged topics will include     1) How to write, where to find, and how to use internationalized software     2) What hardware/operating systems support internationalized software,        (e.g. how do I do Asian word processing on MS-DOS/MacOS/MS-Windows-NT?        what hardware/operating systems are available in other countries?        what is DOS/V?  How do I read a font from BIOS?)     3) How to work with international de jure and de facto standards for         representation of text, e.g. ASCII, JIS, Shift-JIS, Big5, EUC, GB2312,         KSC5601, ISO2022, ISO10646, and Unicode, and why some standards are        popular in some countries & not others.     4) How to process text in various languages (e.g. how do you strip        vowels from Hebrew to get the canonical spelling?  How does one        sort Chinese?  What is a locale file?)   DISCUSSION PERIOD: 25 Feb - 20 Mar Please comment on whether we need this new newsgroup by posting followup messages to news.groups. At the end of this period, if there is enough interest, a call for votes will be sent to the same groups this RFD was sent to.  WHY WE NEED THIS GROUP:  There is a pressing need for modern software to be able to handle multiple languages- the user community is now  international- and existing forums are not adequate:  [email protected], an unmoderated mailing list for discussing    multi-byte character sets; it suffers from being a mailing list rather     than a newsgroup.  Perhaps it could be gatewayed to the new group    for the benefit of those without Usenet access.  bit.software.international, aka [email protected], a moderated mailing    list with a very similar charter.  It has recently moved and changed name.    Status unclear.  comp.std.internat, an unmoderated newsgroup, discusses all manner of     standards, and doesn't have much trafic about internationalized software.  [email protected], an unmoderated mailing list for discussing how    applications on the Internet should represent plain text.  It seems    to have a very small, quiet readership prone to the occasional screaming    fit :-)  RELATED RECENT PROPOALS: comp.software.non-latin.east-asian recently failed its creation vote. alt.chinese.computing was recently proposed, but I feel there is enough of a need for international software that we should try to create a less exclusive group. comp.software.internat was proposed, but the name was considered confusing, and comp.software.international was preferred. comp.software.global was considered uninformative. comp.software.i18n was preferred by those in the know, but is horribly obscure.  - Dan Kegel ([email protected])  From [email protected] Tue Mar 22 20:13:53 1994 Path: uunet!bounce-back From: [email protected] (Andrew Solovay) Newsgroups: news.announce.newgroups,news.groups,alt.chinese.computing,bit.software.international,comp.std.internat,sci.lang.japan Subject: CFV: comp.software.international Followup-To: poster Date: 22 Mar 1994 17:25:47 -0500 Organization: Usenet Volunteer Votetakers (UVV) Lines: 116 Sender: [email protected] Approved: [email protected] Expires: 13 Apr 1994 00:00:00 GMT Message-ID: <[email protected]> References: <[email protected]> Reply-To: [email protected] (Andrew Solovay's vote-taking alias) NNTP-Posting-Host: rodan.uu.net Xref: uunet news.announce.newgroups:4803 news.groups:98746 alt.chinese.computing:637 bit.software.international:494 comp.std.internat:3257 sci.lang.japan:15698                       FIRST CALL FOR VOTES (of 2)             unmoderated group comp.software.international  NOTE: To vote, please use the ballot at the end of this CFV.

Double-check the address before sending your ballot.  Use the ballot provided at the end of this CFV. Put the word "YES" or "NO" between the brackets before the group name. Trim your response to just the ballot, but make sure to send the whole ballot (i.e. everything between the "=-=-=" lines).  You may also use the word ABSTAIN in place of YES/NO - this will not affect the outcome.  Anything else may be rejected by the automatic vote counting program.  The votetaker will respond to your received ballots with a personal acknowledgement by mail - if you do not receive one within several days, try again.  It's your responsibility to make sure your vote is registered correctly.  Each person may vote only once, no matter how many accounts he or she may have. Also, only one ballot will be accepted from any account, no matter how many people may share it. If more than one vote is received >from any person or any account, only the last vote received will be counted.  Addresses and votes of all voters will be published in the final voting results list. All ballots received are kept in the UVV archives (including "cancelled" and invalid ballots). The vote files are made available to the moderator of news.announce.newgroups on request. They may also, at the discretion of the UVV, be made more widely available if there is a controversy concerning the vote.
