This is a request for discussion on the proposal to split
rec.pets.dogs into a number of constituent subnewsgroups:
rec.pets.dogs.activities
rec.pets.dogs.behavior
rec.pets.dogs.breeds
rec.pets.dogs.health
rec.pets.dogs.info, moderated
rec.pets.dogs.misc replacing rec.pets.dogs
Crossposted to: rec.pets.dogs, news.announce.newgroups, news.groups.
Followups to: news.groups
Proposed by: Cindy Tittle Moore ([email protected])
COMMENTS
For those unfamiliar with the process of creating newsgroup, this is
the formal Request For Discussion (RFD) on creating a new group.
Those of us on RPD are already aware of the informal discussion on the
split that has taken place to shape this formal proposal.
Please notice that followups are directed to news.groups. If you wish
to discuss this proposal, you should do so in news.groups, so that all
persons interested in this discussion will be able to see your
remarks. This is a necessary step, even though we've hashed the
issues out to some extent already on rec.pets.dogs.
If the results of the discussion are positive, a vote will be held on
creating this new newsgroup. A Call for Votes (CFV) will be posted at
least 21, but not more than 30, days after this Request for Discussion
(RFD) appears. The CFV will give instructions on how to vote; voting
is conducted for some amount of time between 21 and 31 days. The
exact time will be given in the CFV. I plan to contact Ron Dippold
about using a neutral, third-party Usenet Volunteer Votetaker. When
the votes are tallied, in order for the group to be created, at least
100 more "yes" than "no" votes must have arrived, AND at least 2/3 of
the total votes must be "yes" votes. I will ask for at least one mass
acknowledgement of received votes (without an indication of which way
participants voted) to help you verify that your vote was received.
RATIONALE
Rec.pets.dogs is currently a newsgroup with a huge volume of traffic,
well in excess of 200 messages a day during the weekday and usually
over 50 a day during weekends and holidays. It is increasingly
difficult to keep up with the enthusiastic traffic on this list. It
is also clear, from the numerous mailing lists currently existing,
that there is a high degree of interest in specific topics on
rec.pets.dogs.
Breaking rec.pets.dogs up into several major topical subdivisions
seems the best way to help separate out the traffic on rec.pets.dogs
and reduce it to a more organized and manageable level.
For example, the sheer number of breed specific mailing lists points
up to the interest that people would have in rpd.breeds; the
extraordinarily high volumes on obed-l and agility-l, the continuing
popularity of flyball on RPD, and sustained interest in conform-l
argue for the formation of rpd.activities. The high number of
questions on canine health and husbandry, and the extensive faqs for
same argue for the rpd.health group. The misc group is the USENET
standard for renaming a group that is split up.
(Note, for those interested in seeing just how many faqs and email
lists there are, you may use anonymous ftp to ftp.netcom.com and look
at the documents /pub/tittle/rpd/email-list and
/pub/tittle/rpd/faq-list.)
PROPOSAL
That rec.pets.dogs be split up into a number of subgroups, each listed
with its charter below:
rec.pets.dogs.activities
This group is for the discussion of activities involving dogs.
Examples include but are not limited to conformation, obedience,
field trials, herding trials, frisbee/disc competition, flyball,
hunting, sledding, backpacking/camping and hiking. Other
appropriate topics include discussion of training for the particular
activity, physical conditioning, how to hook up with activities
available in your area, etc. Sportsmanlike conduct is expected; in
particular, derogatory comments about activities you don't care
for are frowned upon. Use of keywords in the subject line to
clearly identify your activity is encouraged.
rec.pets.dogs.breeds
This group is for extensive breed specific discussion. Topics may
include breed specific health problems, locating breeders of
particular breeds, discussing breed specific abilities and
characteristics, asking about what breeds make appropriate pets
under what circumstances. Clearly identifying the breed you are
discussing in the subject line is encouraged.
rec.pets.dogs.info, moderated
This is a moderated group and will only post faqs relevant to
rec.pets.dogs. The moderator will be Cindy Tittle Moore
([email protected]) who has written many of the faqs, and already
moderates another group and so has the relevant experience.
Appropriate faqs that are already cleared for posting to
news.answers are automatically eligible to be posted here. In
addition, many of the regular informative postings that appear on
rec.pets.dogs now would also be eligible (eg, the Protection Dog
articles, the CCI puppy handlers post, etc.). No discussion is
permitted on this group. This group is intended to make the faqs
and artictles with useful information for RPD more visible and
easier to find, especially for newcomers. There are at least
46 faqs and articles regularly posted to rec.pets.dogs at the moment.
rec.pets.dogs.misc
This group is for miscellaneous questions that are not more
appropriate for one of the other groups. This includes chat, humor,
anything pertaining to canines not explicitly covered elsewhere.
The name is the stylized renaming convention for the original group
for when it is split up, and is intended to replace rec.pets.dogs.
rec.pets.dogs.health
This group is for health and medical questions related to dogs.
This includes, but certainly is not limited to, questions on hip
dysplasia, epilepsy, eye problems, diabetes, bloat, allergies and
skin problems, etc. Hereditary and acquired diseases may be
discussed, as well as traumatic disorders. Questions about
nutrition and feeding are also appropriate here. This newsgroup is
not intended to replace veterinary care in any way, but is to help
inform the dog owner about canine health.
rec.pets.dogs.behavior
This group is for the discussion of typical behavioral problems with
dogs. Examples include but are not limited to: digging, barking,
aggressive behavior, housetraining, crate training, etc. Also
appropriate is discussion of "why" dogs behave as they do and how to
work with that to eliminate some behaviors and reinforce others.
