MooreThis is a formal Request For Discussion on the creation of an unmoderated newsgroup, comp.std.pascal. This RFD has been posted in accordance with the Guidelines for Newsgroup Creation. Its language is based on previously submitted RFDs. The RFD is being cross-posted to the following relevant news groups: news.announce.newgroups news.groups comp.lang.pascal comp.std.misc CHARTER The comp.std.pascal newsgroup will be open to discussion of the Pascal language standards, the Pascal language as defined by those standards, compilers conforming to the standards, and other Pascal standards related topics. The existing stanards for the Pascal language are as follows: ISO/IEC 7185 "Programming Languages - Pascal" ANSI/IEEE 770X3.97-1983 "American National Standard Pascal Computer Programming Language" ISO/IEC 10206:1991 "Programming Languages - Extended Pascal" ANSI/IEEE 770X3.160 The newsgroup will be founded on these standards, but will be open to further standards forthcoming. RATIONALE The Pascal is an unusual (perhaps unique) language in that the officially defined standards are not the basis of the most widely used variant of the language Pascal. The only existing Pascal oriented newsgroup, comp.lang.pascal, has, by observation, come to be dominated by traffic based on the leading defacto standard, the Borland Pascal variant. Since this defacto standard is not compatible with the standard language, this leads to the need to "hunt" for traffic on the standards and the standard language among the much greater volume of Borland Pascal based traffic. I propose that both the users of the standard Pascal language and the users of Borland would be better served if the languages were separated into two groups. I further assert that because comp.lang.pascal is overwhemingly Borland Pascal based, that having the standard Pascal based users move elsewhere and leaving the majority of the comp.lang.pascal users alone would only be fair. PRECEDENT Several groups exist to discuss the standard versions of languages, including comp.lisp, comp.c, comp.c++. MAILING LISTS No known lists exist. FUTURE CALL FOR VOTES After a discussion period of 21-30 days, if there are no overwhelming objections to the proposed group, there will be a Call For Votes (CFV) posted to the same groups as this RFD. The voting period will be at least 21 days. If the group passes by receiving 100 more YES votes than NO votes, and (at least) twice as many YES votes as NO votes, it will be created. Scott A.

This group split will give the most popular versions of the language their own newsgroups, and also create a common area for discussion of all Pascals. The group plans follow: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Newsgroup : comp.lang.pascal.misc Status : unmoderated Distribution : Worldwide Summary : For discussion of issues pertaining to all Pascal versions Proponent : Scott A. Moore ([email protected]) Charter: This group will serve for discussions about Pascal that are language independent, conversion of one Pascal language to another, Pascal versions that do not fit into one of the other groups, and other issues. Mailing lists: No known mailing lists exist ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Newsgroup : comp.lang.pascal.borland Status : unmoderated Distribution : Worldwide Summary : For discussion of the Borland Pascal language Proponent : Scott A. Moore ([email protected]) Charter: This group will serve for discussions about the various implementations of Borland Pascal, programming and programs written in that language, and other issues. Topics that will typically be discussed here are: Status of the Borland Pascal language. Efforts to produce a manufacturer independent standard for Borland Pascal. Operating system specific applications of Borland Pascal. Machine specific applications of Borland Pascal. Mailing lists: No known mailing lists exist ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Newsgroup : comp.lang.pascal.ansi-iso Status : unmoderated Distribution : Worldwide Summary : For discussion of the ISO/ANSI Pascal standard language Proponent : Scott A. Moore ([email protected]) Charter: This group will serve for discussions of all Pascal implementations based on the ISO and ANSI Pascal standards, programs and programming in those languages, the standards themselves, and other issues. As discussed in the previous RFD round, it is not the intent to discuss only standard features/functions, but ANY application of or extention to Pascals that use the standards for a basis. I forsee these including: Further (upcoming) standards for Pascal, including the object Pascal standard. Operating system specific applications of standard Pascal. Machine specific applications of standard Pascal. Portable GUI interfaces for standard Pascal. And others.

Proponent : Scott A. Moore ([email protected]) Charter: This group will serve to discuss the new Pascal variant called Delphi, including programming, programs, operation and other issues. Envisioned are the topics: Operation of the Delphi toolset Coding in Delphi Relationship of Delphi to Pascal And others. There has been some discussion on whether Delphi properly belongs under the pascal tree. However, Borland itself claims that the delphi language is Pascal based. Since it is considered to be incompatible with previous editions of Borland Pascal, I also do not consider it a candidate for inclusion under the comp.lang.pascal.borland tree. Mailing lists: A mailing list has been announced for delphi. It's status is unknown at this time. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a formal Request For Discussion on the creation of the above described newsgroups, and the phase out of the group comp.lang.pascal.

Do not erase anything between these lines and do not change the group name. Basically, remove everything except the ballot - we have to save them all on disk. Give your name on the line that asks for it. Place a YES or NO in the brackets next to the group name to vote for or against it. Don't worry about spacing of the columns or any quote characters (">") that your reply inserts. Send MAIL to: [email protected] Just Replying should work if you are not reading this on a mailing list. -=-=-=-=-=- Don't Delete Anything Between These Lines =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- comp.lang.pascal Ballot (Don't remove this marker) Give your real name here: If you do not give a real name your vote may be rejected. [Your Vote] Group ----------------------------------------------------------------------- [ ] comp.lang.pascal.misc (replaces comp.lang.pascal) [ ] comp.lang.pascal.borland [ ] comp.lang.pascal.mac [ ] comp.lang.pascal.ansi-iso -=-=-=-=-=- Don't Delete Anything Between These Lines =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Neither ABSTAIN nor CANCEL messages are counted as votes; they serve only to cancel any previous vote. Abstentions are noted in the final vote list, whereas CANCEL removes your vote from that list entirely. (This is the only difference between the two.) Anything else may be rejected by the automatic vote counting program. The votetaker will respond to your received ballots with a personal acknowledge- ment 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. If you later change your mind you may vote again; only your last valid vote will count. Standard Guidelines for voting apply: no more than one vote per person, no more than one vote per account. If you attempt multiple votes or other vote fraud, all your votes may be canceled and your name published. The complete vote list will be posted with the vote result, including how each person voted. Note that Usenet votes are not done by secret ballot. There will then be a five-day period during which the published vote list may be corrected and any irregularities addressed. The requirements for group creation are 100 more YES votes than NO votes, and 2/3 of all counted votes being YES.

However, the programming language underlying Delphi is called Object Pascal rather than Delphi, and it is not different enough from Pascal to warrant creation of a separate comp.lang newsgroup. Comp.lang.pascal.delphi This group was initially second most popular, and later became the most popular choice. If Delphi is placed in the comp.lang hierarchy, it seems the most natural place. However, - it downplays the database aspects of Delphi - it moves Delphi away from the related packages PowerBuilder and Uniface. Comp.soft-sys.delphi Much of Delphi is not really a "language" at all; the VCL library with its database support and the visual design environment are valuable parts of the package, suggesting that comp.soft-sys is an appropriate place. This proposal received very little support. Comp.soft-sys.app-builder.delphi The comp.soft-sys hierarchy contains a number of unrelated software packages, and there has been a recent effort to organize these into subgroups by topic (e.g. c.s.math.mathematica, c.s.multimedia.cu-seeme.*, and the c.s.app-builder.uniface proposal). Within comp.soft-sys, Delphi is most closely related to Uniface, another application development product, and would belong as a sibling of it in the app-builder subgroup. This name was proposed in the 1st RFD, and received some support, though not nearly as much as c.l.p.d. On the negative side, it was pointed out that: - it may cause confusion with the Novell Visual AppBuilder product (which performs a function similar to Delphi) - it downplays the Pascal language aspect of Delphi, and may lead to numerous incorrect posts to the c.l.p groups - it violates the precedent of placement in the comp.lang hierarchy set by Visual Basic, the closest existing package to Delphi In my judgment, the two names c.l.p.d and c.s.a.d are clearly better than the other choices. Neither is perfect, but I would judge their flaws to be roughly equal. However, c.l.p.d has been much more popular than c.s.a.d in the Delphi discussion, and so I have changed the proposal. 2. Choice of subgroups There is no change to the subgroups from the original proposal: The current volume of postings in comp.lang.pascal suggests that about 3 newsgroups would have a reasonable amount of traffic. The choice of "databases", "components" and "misc" represents my judgment of a clear delineation of topics. The databases and misc subgroups will likely have similar high traffic rates. The components group will probably be more technical and lower volume. In the future, new subgroups separating local database issues from client-server issues, and separating language from VCL from IDE usage issues might be appropriate, if traffic warrants. A moderated group for new product announcements may also prove to be desirable. CHARTERS (AND CONTEXT) Delphi is Borland's recently released rapid application development system for MS Windows. It consists of a compiler for a version of Object Pascal descended from Borland's Pascal compilers, a user-interface and database access library called VCL, and a development environment allowing for components to be dropped from a palette into an application. Components may also be written in Delphi and installed into the environment. Since the release of Delphi, most Usenet discussion of it has taken place in comp.lang.pascal, raising the volume of postings there from 70/day to 200/day. ************************************************************************ * Group 1: comp.lang.pascal.delphi.databases This group would be for discussions related to using the database aspects of Delphi. Discussions of Database Desktop and Reportsmith would belong here, as would discussions of the database aspects of VCL, client-server issues, and most other things relating to databases. ************************************************************************ * Group 2: comp.lang.pascal.delphi.components This group would be for discussion specific to writing components in Delphi. Discussions of details of VCL pertinent to creating new components, how to write VBXs, and other issues of component design would be on topic here. Discussions about creating database components would probably be more appropriate here than in the c.s.a.d.databases group. Discussions about how to use components would belong in c.s.a.d.misc. ************************************************************************ * Group 3: comp.lang.pascal.delphi.misc This would be the catch-all discussion group not dealing with the specific technical issues covered in the other groups. The name "misc" was chosen to be in line with current newsgroup name conventions. Discussions of how to use the IDE and help system, how to install components including VBXs, how to use VCL and Object Pascal (except database specific issues), how to port code from other languages to Delphi, how to create DLLs, bugs and workarounds in VCL, announcements of new products, general help in getting started, where to find ftp and www sites regarding Delphi, etc. would all be on topic here. WHAT'S NEXT Seven days after this RFD is posted, if there are not overwhelming objections to any of the proposed groups, there will be a Call For Votes (CFV) posted to the groups as this RFD has been. The voting period will be 22 days. Each group that passes, by receiving 100 more YES votes than NO votes *and* twice as many YES votes as NO votes, will be created.

Votes must be received by 23:59:59 UTC, 5 June 1995. This vote is being conducted by a neutral third party. For voting questions only contact Warren Lavallee . For questions about the proposed group contact Scott A. Moore . DISTRIBUTION This CFV has been cross posted to comp.lang.pascal. CHARTER comp.lang.pascal.misc This group will serve for discussions about Pascal that are language independent, conversion of one Pascal language to another, Pascal versions that do not fit into one of the other groups, and other issues. comp.lang.pascal.borland This group will serve for discussions about the various implementations of Borland Pascal, programming and programs written in that language, and other issues. Topics that will typically be discussed here are: Status of the Borland Pascal language. Efforts to produce a manufacturer independent standard for Borland Pascal. Operating system specific applications of Borland Pascal. Machine specific applications of Borland Pascal. comp.lang.pascal.ansi-iso This group will serve for discussions of all Pascal implementations based on the ISO and ANSI Pascal standards, programs and programming in those languages, the standards themselves, and other issues. As discussed in the previous RFD round, it is not the intent to discuss only standard features/functions, but ANY application of or extention to Pascals that use the standards for a basis. I forsee these including: Further (upcoming) standards for Pascal, including the object Pascal standard. Operating system specific applications of standard Pascal. Machine specific applications of standard Pascal. Portable GUI interfaces for standard Pascal. And others. comp.lang.pascal.mac This group will serve for discussions of the macintosh based Think Pascal, Apple Pascal, Codewarrior Pascal and other Macintosh Pascals, programs and programming in that language, and other issues. Some subjects are: Efforts to create a manufacturer indepenent standard for Macintosh Pascal. Operating system specific issues with Macintosh Pascals (esp. the Macintosh OS). Machine specific issues with Macintosh Pascals (esp. The macintosh). HOW TO VOTE Erase everything above the top "-=-=-=-" line and erase everything below the bottom "-=-=-=-" line. Do not erase anything between these lines and do not change the group name. Basically, remove everything except the ballot - we have to save them all on disk. Give your name on the line that asks for it. Place a YES or NO in the brackets next to the group name to vote for or against it. Don't worry about spacing of the columns or any quote characters (">") that your reply inserts. Send MAIL to: [email protected] Just Replying should work if you are not reading this on a mailing list. -=-=-=-=-=- Don't Delete Anything Between These Lines =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- comp.lang.pascal Ballot (Don't remove this marker) Give your real name here: If you do not give a real name your vote may be rejected.

Abstentions are noted in the final vote list, whereas CANCEL removes your vote from that list entirely. (This is the only difference between the two.) Anything else may be rejected by the automatic vote counting program. The votetaker will respond to your received ballots with a personal acknowledge- ment 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. If you later change your mind you may vote again; only your last valid vote will count. Standard Guidelines for voting apply: no more than one vote per person, no more than one vote per account. If you attempt multiple votes or other vote fraud, all your votes may be canceled and your name published. The complete vote list will be posted with the vote result, including how each person voted. Note that Usenet votes are not done by secret ballot. There will then be a five-day period during which the published vote list may be corrected and any irregularities addressed. The requirements for group creation are 100 more YES votes than NO votes, and 2/3 of all counted votes being YES.
