Justification:	  	There are currently comp.sys.atari.st, comp.sys.atari.st.tech, comp.sys.atari.8bit and comp.sys.atari.advocacy, the first three groups are discussion forums for their (specific) related hard and software. Product  announcements in these discussion forums of new releases by either commercial, shareware groups can often be considered a service but not encouraged. The atari computer market is not very widely distributed and it is getting increasingly harder to know more about new products.  	To begin with a product announcement group would encourage the people to announce their new products for the benefit of all atari computer users. It will also allow the reader to focus for a new newsgroup only for product announcements or press releases and will also make the reader more aware of his/her options.  Charter:  	The proposed group will provide a forum for the announcement and release of new atari related products:   * atari computer hard and soft * commercial as well as shareware or related * announcement from individual authors, companies or distributors * press releases   NOTE  This RFD is being issued in concordance with the guidelines set in the "How to create a new usenet newsgroup" FAQ regularly posted to  news.announce.newgroups.
