From [email protected] Mon Mar 29 20:41:24 1993 Path: uunet!bounce-back From: [email protected] (Brian Tao) Newsgroups: news.announce.newgroups,news.groups,comp.sys.apple2,comp.sys.apple2.gno Subject: RFD: comp.sys.apple2 reorganization Followup-To: news.groups Date: 29 Mar 1993 19:31:23 -0500 Organization: R-node Public Access Unix - 1 416 249 5366 Lines: 182 Sender: [email protected] Approved: [email protected] Message-ID: <[email protected]> NNTP-Posting-Host: rodan.uu.net Xref: uunet news.announce.newgroups:3404 news.groups:68762 comp.sys.apple2:54839 comp.sys.apple2.gno:1245  ______________________________________________________________________     OFFICIAL REQUEST FOR DISCUSSION - comp.sys.apple2 reorganization ______________________________________________________________________  Submitted by:    Brian Tao ([email protected]) Date submitted:  Mar 29 1993  === === INTRODUCTION ===      This is an official Request For Discussion concerning the reorganization of the comp.sys.apple2 Usenet newsgroup (referred to now as "csa2"); specifically, the creation of four new subgroups under the current csa2 hierarchy:  csa2.comm         Discussions related to Apple II data communications csa2.marketplace  Buying/selling/trading of Apple II-related equipment csa2.programmer   Discussions related to Apple II programming csa2.usergroup    Discussions related to running an Apple II user group      All four proposed newsgroups will be UNMODERATED.  Charters for each newsgroup are posted below in this article.      Comp.sys.apple2 currently acts as a "catch-all" newsgroup for Apple II-related discussions.  As such, it may reach over 100 new articles per day with several dozen threads active at once.  In preliminary discussions on csa2, many readers have expressed the desire to see a few broad-interest newsgroups created under the csa2 hierarchy so that 1) message traffic on the main newsgroup is reduced, and 2) Apple II users who are interested in a particular aspect of the computer will not have to sift through irrelevant news articles.      General topics relating to the entire 8-bit Apple II family and the 16-bit Apple IIGS personal computer should be posted to the original csa2 newsgroup.  Because of the intent of this proposal (i.e., to divide Apple II-related discussions into more manageable groups), cross-posting to several csa2.* groups is not encouraged.  However, if you're not sure where to post, then use csa2!      Please note than this proposal does not include the removal or renaming of comp.sys.apple2 itself.  Csa2 will remain as the top-level newsgroup in this hierarchy.      Although not in strict accordance with the procedure described in the "Guidelines For Usenet Group Creation" document, it was felt that a single RFD and a single ensuing CFV (with individual votes on a per-group basis) would be more desirable.  See the "comp.sys.mac reorganization" RFD posted by Chuq Von Rospach ([email protected]) on Feb 19 1990 for a good example of a multiple-group RFD.      The RFD period will commence when this article appears on news.announce.newgroups (cross-posted to news.groups, comp.sys.apple2 and comp.sys.apple2.gno) and will end 28 days hence.  At that point, a Call For Votes (CFV) may follow.  Follow-ups concerning this proposal will be directed to news.groups.  All consenting and dissenting opinion should be posted publicly on news.groups and may be cross- posted to comp.sys.apple2 only.  Do not e-mail comments to me, or post only in the csa2 newsgroup (and neglecting news.groups).  Discussion on the four charters and the structure or wording of this proposal will be entertained.   === === CHARTER:  comp.sys.apple2.comm (unmoderated) ===      The original proposal called for the "comp.sys.apple2.bbs" newsgroup.  The new name is offered here as a more accurate alternative.  Topics suitable for discussion in csa2.comm include (but are not limited to):   1. Telecommunications software (ProTERM, ANSITerm, ZLink, TIC, etc.)  2. Bulletin board software (METAL/FutureVision, ProLine, Warp Six,       GBBS Pro, Prime, etc.)  3. Online services (GEnie, CompuServe, America Online, etc.)  4. Telecommunications hardware (high-speed modems, building cables,       selecting a serial card, etc.)  5. Networking (AppleShare, LocalTalk, Ethertalk, CAP, etc.)  6. Cross-platform connectivity (IBM-to-Apple, Apple-to-Macintosh,       Apple-to-UNIX via UUCP, etc.)      This proposal also calls for the merging of the "a2bbs" mailing list, currently maintained by Doug Granzow on the ProLine BBS network system.  Creation of csa2.comm will expand the distribution of this popular mailing list (over 100 readers) to the Usenet domain.   === === CHARTER: comp.sys.apple2.marketplace (unmoderated) ===      A very active segment of any comp.sys.* newsgroup is the discussions related to the buying and selling of used computers, peripherals, old software, etc. between private individuals.  Currently, all messages of this type are posted to csa2 or one of the misc.forsale groups.  Csa2.marketplace proposes to focus all Apple II- related "for sale" or "wanted" postings and their discussion in one newsgroup.  Commercial listings are inappropriate for csa2.marketplace, as per Usenet guidelines.   === === CHARTER: comp.sys.apple2.programmer (unmoderated) ===      This is the 2nd RFD for the creation of csa2.programmer.  The original RFD was submitted by Richard Muise ([email protected]; address may not be current) on Jul 8 1992.  The current charter is based on Richard's original proposal.      Csa2.programmer will be a newsgroup for the discussion of programming techniques, reference information and hardware pertaining to the entire Apple II family.  Topics that can be covered include (but are not limited to):   1. Programming the Apple II in any compiled or interpreted language       (C, Pascal, BASIC, assembly, Forth, HyperTalk, etc.)  2. Source code fragments that may be of interest to the Apple II       programming community  3. Specific programming and operating systems (Merlin 16+, ORCA       shell environment, HyperC, GS/OS desktop programming, etc.)  4. Information pertaining to the Apple II hardware architecture       (softswitch locations, addressing the Ensoniq sound chip,       accessing slots, using DMA, etc.)      Paragraph (2) does not advocate the posting of complete source code to csa2.programmer.  Comp.sources.apple2 exists for such a purpose.  However, small fragments of code illustrating a particular algorithm or a reader's problem are allowed.      Discussions relating to Procyon's GNO/ME multitasking programming environment, normally falling under Paragraph (3), are usually of a very specific nature.  They should generally be limited to the comp.sys.apple2.gno newsgroup, with cross-posting to csa2.programmer if a wider audience will benefit.      Paragraph (4) does not include general hardware questions (installation, repair, upgrades, best hardware product to buy, etc.)  Articles of this nature should be posted to csa2 or csa2.marketplace as appropriate.      This proposal also suggests the merging of the HyperC-L mailing list, currently maintained by Steve Craft ([email protected]) at ccsvax.sfasu.edu.  Hyper-C is a freeware C compiler designed for the 8-bit Apple II family.   === === CHARTER: comp.sys.apple2.usergroup (unmoderated) ===      The user group is perhaps the most important resource for any computer user, more so for the Apple II family than for many other platforms.  With dwindling visible Apple II support from Apple, Inc. and a scarcity of large third-party companies supporting the Apple II, the user group becomes an invaluable asset for both novices and veterans alike.      The charter for this group comes from the NAUGSAW promotional literature, an Apple User Group convention held annually in different cities across North America:    "Sessions will focus on helping User Groups effectively    serve members and communities. They will identify common    challenges, brainstorm new concepts, and discuss how best    to meet those needs. Topics will include forming a group,    obtaining non-profit status, affiliating with other groups,    setting up a BBS system, publishing newsletters, volunteer    management, case histories, fund raising, and more."      The creation of csa2.usergroup will unite Apple II user groups >from around the world.  It will serve as a forum for the exchange of ideas, as well as discussion of common problems inherent in running an Apple II user group.  Representatives of user groups with Internet access can draw upon the collective knowledge and experience of others on csa2.usergroup.  Other comp.sys.* hierarchies may want to consider adding a similar subgroup if csa2.usergroup proves to be successful. --  Brian Tao:: [email protected] (University of Toronto) ::::::::::: [email protected] (r-Node BBS, 416-249-5366, FREE!)

The voting period will close May 22 at 11:59 EST.  Ballots received after this date will not be counted. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any problems casting your vote (mail to [email protected]).  *** Please note that I will not have net access from May 8 to May 15.  *** Votes may still be submitted (they will be stored until I return), *** but the individual e-mail acknowledgements will not be mailed out *** until the final week of the CFV.   --- <<< begin >>> ---------------------------------------------------- === === Official comp.sys.apple2 reorganization ballot [CSA2-6502:3] === Mail to <[email protected]> ===  VOTE      GROUP ~~~~~~    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ yes       this.is.an.example no        this.is.another.example            comp.sys.apple2.comm           comp.sys.apple2.marketplace           comp.sys.apple2.programmer           comp.sys.apple2.usergroups  --- <<< end >>> ------------------------------------------------------     This article contains a mass acknowledgement of all votes received for the comp.sys.apple2 reorganization proposal as of 12:00 PM (EST) on May 7, 1993.

Please do not send any more votes -- they will be discarded.  Thanks to all who participated in the discussion and voting.      A total of 303 valid votes were received (not including 8 duplicate votes which were discarded).  Proposals for the creation of four new unmoderated newsgroups have all passed (YES votes exceed NO votes by 100 or more, and over two-thirds of the votes are YES).  YES and NO votes may not always add up to 303 because of abstentions:  comp.sys.apple2 reorganization results - 303 votes   Yes   No : 2/3? >100? : Pass? : Group ---- ---- : ---- ----- : ----- : -------------------------------------------  259   38 :  Yes   Yes :   Yes : comp.sys.apple2.comm  266   33 :  Yes   Yes :   Yes : comp.sys.apple2.marketplace  266   34 :  Yes   Yes :   Yes : comp.sys.apple2.programmer  236   56 :  Yes   Yes :   Yes : comp.sys.apple2.usergroups  csa2.comm         Discussions related to Apple II data communications csa2.marketplace  Buying/selling/trading of Apple II-related equipment csa2.programmer   Discussions related to Apple II programming csa2.usergroups   Discussions related to running an Apple II user group       According to the "Guidelines" posting, there will be a five-day waiting period after this notice appears on news.announce.newgroups in which any serious concerns or corrections to the results list should be brought to my attention.  If no major objections are made against the results of the vote or the voting procedure, newgroup control messages will be sent out by the moderator of news.announce.newgroups, David Lawrence.      Of note:  an above-average proportion of ProLine BBS users participated in the vote (74 votes, or about one-quarter).  ProLine is an Apple II-based network that carries Internet e-mail and Usenet news.  Users of these systems have traditionally been "lurkers" on Usenet -- reading but rarely posting.  My thanks to the sysops of various ProLine systems for making the RFD and CFV's easily accessible to their users and encouraging them to vote.  BTW, for anyone who has money riding on this, pro-cajun wins with the most votes at 15.  :)      I should also mention Ron Dippold, the author of the UseVote vote- taking software which made the usually mundane task of running a CFV trivial.  It processes the voting account's mailbox, scans for votes, interprets the ballot, adds the results to the database and checks for duplicate votes.  It also generates voting ballots, personal vote acknowledgments, mass ACK listings, tally results and final voting results.  Did I miss anything, Ron?  ;-)  I've compiled it on seven different architectures, from my Apple IIGS using ORCA/C and GNO, to a 386/33 with Linux/gcc, to a Sparcstation 10 running SunOS 4.13 and gcc.   Anyone who wants to run a CFV (especially a multi-vote CFV) should take a look at his software.  Truly a fantastic time-saver.      The list of voters and their votes follows.  'Y' means yes, 'N' means no and a '-' means an abstention.  Column 1 contains the votes for csa2.comm, 2 is csa2.marketplace, 3 is csa2.marketplace and 4 is csa2.usergroups.  Again, thanks to all who voted.   comp.sys.apple2 reorganization Final Vote Ack                           1234                                                                         ==== [email protected] ("John M.
