As an inter-disciplinary investigation of cognition, cognitive science has been around now for about 40 years, and has now entered an institutional phase with textbooks, journals, degree courses in many countries etc.  However cognitive science doesn't at present have a dedicated newsgroup through which those interested from cognitive psychology, artificial intelligence, computer science, philosophy, linguistics, cognitive anthropology etc.  can communicate. Some newsgroups such as comp.ai, comp.ai.neural-nets, comp.cog-eng, sci.psychology etc.do carry relevant postings, but I suggest that a dedicated newsgoup would help the presently rather fragmented nature of communication in the field.  Some topics on which it would be useful to have postings are:  * discussion of issues in all aspects of cognitive science, * proposals for collaborative research * reports, papers, and programs available through ftp  and also announcements of:   * degree courses in cognitive science * conferences * jobs in cognitive science * relevant email lists * relevant journals and books   If discussion is favourable, I'll be happy to conduct a vote as set out in the Guidelines in news.goups and proceed from there.

Group Charter  -------------  Cognitive science is an inter-disciplinary investigation of cognition, involving cognitive psychology, artificial intelligence, computer science, human-computer interaction, philosophy of mind, philosophy of science, linguistics, neuroscience, cognitive anthropology and other disciplines. The 'mind's new science' has been around since the mid-50's, and has entered an institutional phase with textbooks, journals, centres of research and teaching etc. However, due to its inter-disciplinary and international character, channels of communication devoted specifically to cognitive science are still needed, and the group sci.cognitive is intended to serve this end.  The group should serve as an open forum for discussion of all aspects of cognitive science: empirical work, cognitive modelling, theory, methodology, foundational, historical and social issues etc.   The group should also facilitate the exchange of information on teaching programmes, conferences, jobs etc.   The main language of the group is English, but postings in other languages are also encouraged.   How to Vote -----------  To vote for the creation of sci.cognitive with the above charter, email [email protected] with the word "yes" in the Subject field. No body of text is required.  To vote against the creation of sci.cognitive, email [email protected] with the word "no" in the Subject field. Again, no body of text is required.  The voting period is to 24.00 on 11 June 1992. Votes will be ignored if they are received outside of the voting period, sent to any other address, or posted to the net. Only one vote is allowed per person.  What Happens Next -----------------  At the end of the voting period, a list of "yes" and "no" voters will be posted to news.announce.newgroups. If the (valid) "yes" votes exceed the (valid) "no" votes by 100, and at least 2/3 of the votes are "yes" votes, then after a 5 day waiting/checking period, the new group will be created. --  Donald Peterson, Cognitive Science, School of Computer Science, University of Birmingham, Birmingham B15 2TT, U.K.  email [email protected]  From [email protected] Fri Jun 19 13:28:23 1992 Xref: uunet news.announce.newgroups:2441 news.groups:52922 sci.psychology:8986 sci.philosophy.meta:3777 sci.philosophy.tech:8349 comp.ai.neural-nets:6927 comp.ai.philosophy:7295 comp.cog-eng:2309 Newsgroups: news.announce.newgroups,news.groups,sci.psychology,sci.philosophy.meta,sci.philosophy.tech,comp.ai.neural-nets,comp.ai.philosophy,comp.cog-eng Path: uunet!bounce-back From: Donald Peterson <[email protected]> Subject: RESULT: sci.cognitive passes 447: 13 Message-ID: <[email protected]> Followup-To: news.groups Sender: [email protected] (David C Lawrence) Organization: Cognitive Science, Computer Science, University of Birmingham Date: Fri, 19 Jun 1992 04:21:57 GMT Approved: [email protected] Lines: 557  RESULT ------  Following RFD and CFV the vote for the creation of sci.cognitive has been conducted over the period 11 May 1992 --- 11 June 1992. The result is:   INVALID 12    NO      13     YES     447   Thus the "yes" votes number more than 100, and constitute more than 2/3 of the total, and so the result is positive and in favour of the creation of the new group.   INVALID VOTES -------------  The CFV stated:  > To vote for the creation of sci.cognitive with the above charter, > email [email protected] with the word "yes" in the Subject field. > No body of text is required. >  > To vote against the creation of sci.cognitive, email > [email protected] with the word "no" in the Subject field. Again, no > body of text is required. >  > The voting period is to 24.00 on 11 June 1992. Votes will be ignored > if they are received outside of the voting period, sent to any other > address, or posted to the net. Only one vote is allowed per person.  The "invalid" votes were all clearly intended as "yes" votes but were sent to the address "sc-no" or "D.M.Peterson", or were sent outside the voting period, and so cannot be counted. The goodwill of these voters, is however acknowledged.   DUPLICATE VOTES ---------------  Four duplicate votes were removed.    CHARTER -------  The charter for which voting took place is as follows:  Cognitive science is an inter-disciplinary investigation of cognition, involving cognitive psychology, artificial intelligence, computer science, human-computer interaction, philosophy of mind, philosophy of science, linguistics, neuroscience, cognitive anthropology and other disciplines. The 'mind's new science' has been around since the mid-50's, and has entered an institutional phase with textbooks, journals, centres of research and teaching etc. However, due to its inter-disciplinary and international character, channels of communication devoted specifically to cognitive science are still needed, and the group sci.cognitive is intended to serve this end.  The group should serve as an open forum for discussion of all aspects of cognitive science: empirical work, cognitive modelling, theory, methodology, foundational, historical and social issues etc.  The group should also facilitate the exchange of information on teaching programmes, conferences, jobs etc.  The main language of the group is English, but postings in other languages are also encouraged.   WHAT'S NEXT -----------  Following the "Guidelines" in news.groups, there will now be a 5 day waiting period during which the votes can be examined.
