Proposed by: paul chemmanoor ([email protected]) This is a formal Request For Discussion (RFD) on the creation of an unmoderated newsgroup soc.culture.indian.kerala This RFD is being cross-posted to the following newsgroups: news.announce.newgroups news.groups alt.culture.kerala soc.culture.indian If the results of the discussion are positive, a vote will be held on creating this new newsgroup. The Call For Votes (CFV) will be posted 21 days after posting this RFD. Vote counting will be conducted by a neutral third-party. RATIONALE --------- Kerala is a state in the south of India, with a population of 25 million. The language spoken is Malayalam. Expatriate Keralite population groups are concentrated in North America and the Middle East, but present in lesser numbers all over the world. alt.culture.kerala was formed about two years ago and has grown into a electronic community that is primarily devoted to issues that relate to the south indian state of Kerala, but reflecting the diverse interests that ackers --as readers of alt.culture.kerala call themselves -- pursue. And this has ranged from recipes for Ingima to Mohan Lal movie lists and from ritual suicide in Japan to EPR teleportation. The burgeoning of newsgroups seem to have caused a policy of filtering out alt* hierarchy newsgroups at major sites. This is limiting the distribution of alt.culture.kerala. To continue the growth of the ack community it is proposed to create soc.culture.indian.kerala CHARTER ------- To discuss issues that relate primarily to the culture of the people of Keralite origin around the world. Topics for discussion include (but are not limited to) 1.Cinema. 2.Books. 3.Traditions & Beliefs. 4.Humor. 5.News. 6.Food. as they relate to Kerala and Keralite culture.
