PROPOSED NAME: rec.heraldry

PROPOSED CHARTER: rec.heraldry will be a forum for the discussion of heraldry.
Heraldry is the science of designing coats of arms for nobility, and has been
practiced since the Middle Ages in all European countries.
Heraldry has a number of different aspects, all of which can be discussed in
the forum.  Each coat of arms is the hereditary symbol of a noble family, so 
knowledge of heraldry can be helpful in generology.  As a craft which is rooted
in medieval feudalism, it can be an aid to historians and medievalists.  And,
as a living art form used in every country of the world, it is practiced by 
amateur and professional heralds in the modern world.

BACKGROUND: The ultimate genesis of this group is the newsgroup rec.org.sca , a
newsgroup for the Society of Creative Anachronism (a medieval recreation
society.)  Because of the extended and technical nature of heraldic discussion,
a mailing list for SCA heraldry discussion began in March 1991.  When the
mailing list was temporarily shut down, the newsgroup alt.heraldry.sca (still
in existence at some sites) was created to take its place.  The mailing list
returned, but the high interest in the group showed a need for a newsgroup that
looked at all aspects of heraldry.  This newsgroup is not meant to be for SCA
members but for anyone interested in modern or historical heraldry.
