That is, all who wish to join may freely do so.  Proposed CHARTER for the proposed group "soc.culture.malaysia" -     The proposed group, soc.culture.malaysia, is intended for    the discussion of all topics pertaining to Malaysia, including    but not limited to: culture, national politics, foreign diplomacy,    economy, peoples, and land.   Why I feel this newsgroup should be created -  1) The current newsgroup in which most discussion of Malaysia    occurs is "soc.culture.asean". It seems that most of the    discussion in this group as a whole pertains to either    Malaysia or Singapore (which perhaps should have a group)     rather than pertaining to ASEAN. This strongly hints that    a separate group should be created for discussion of Malaysia.  2) Most of the larger countries in Southeast Asia are already represented    by newsgroups, including:     soc.culture.filipino    soc.culture.thai    soc.culture.vietnamese    alt.culture.indonesia     as well as others nearby -     soc.culture.australia    soc.culture.bangladesh    soc.culture.china    soc.culture.hongkong    soc.culture.new-zealand   3) soc.culture.asean, as mentioned in #1 above, no longer has much    talk about ASEAN as a whole, suggesting the group is no longer    fulfilling its intended purpose. Perhaps it should be dissolved    or renamed with a new charter. Anyhow, it now seems an apropriate    time for soc.culture.malaysia to be created.

THIS IS NOT A VOTE. I included an explanation at the end of this message of the process for creating a new newsgoup. We have 3 weeks left before we can begin voting. What we need to do now is to keep talking about it so that most people agree on the name of the group, its charter, and whether or not it will be moderated (Censored ;-)  Also, please note that discussion for this group is redirected to the newsgroup "news.groups" so when anyone replies to this message their reply will go to that group. This is necessary as part of the rules for creating new newsgroups. So please check out the discussions there.  I would like to thank all so far who have supported this idea. If all remains like this, we will almost certainly have a new newsgroup!   ----------------------------------------------------------------------  This is an official RFD - Request for Discussion for the creating of a new newsgroup.  The proposed group is to be called "soc.culture.malaysia"  The proposed group is unmoderated. That is, all who wish to join may freely do so.

Perhaps it should be dissolved    or renamed with a new charter. Anyhow, it now seems an apropriate    time for soc.culture.malaysia to be created.   ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rules for creating new newsgroups :  Many people have asked how to create this group, I apologize for not explaining it right away.             I have already volunteered to manage this process, which was started when I made my first post.  The first step is to make an official "RFD soc.culture.malaysia" posting to news.announce.newgroups and also cross-posted to any other relevant newsgroups. Then what must happen is that for 30 days people on USENET must discuss, talk, argue, about if they  think it is a good idea to have this group. They also must generally agree on the purpose of the group and whether it should be moderated or free for everyone.  This first step I already started with my original post. I will send that post again after 1 week and every week (with changes that people agree on) until the discussion period ends after 30 days.  Then the next step is the formal call for vote "CFV soc.culture.malaysia" in which everyone who reads usenet may mail a vote "yes" or "no" if they like the current proposal. The voting lasts for 3-4 weeks. If at least 2/3 of the votes are "yes" and 100 more "yes" votes than "no" votes exist, then the soc.culture.malaysia will be officially created (if there are no problems with the voting process). Otherwise we must wait another 6 months if there are not enough votes before we can try again.  With good luck and everything goes well, we can have a soc.culture.malaysia in 2 months. It will not come sooner.  Wish us luck!!  :) --  -chris barrera        [email protected]    Secrtary -  Malaysian Students Association Michigan Technological University  From [email protected] Sat Feb 13 12:45:30 1993 Newsgroups: news.announce.newgroups,news.groups,soc.culture.asean,soc.culture.thai,soc.culture.vietnamese,soc.culture.hongkong,soc.culture.china,soc.culture.filipino,soc.culture.australian,soc.culture.indian,soc.culture.tamil Path: uunet!enterpoop.mit.edu!spool.mu.edu!uwm.edu!rpi!bounce-back From: [email protected] (Christopher Barrera) Subject: CFV: soc.culture.malaysia Message-ID: <[email protected]> Followup-To: poster Organization: Michigan Technological University Date: Mon, 1 Feb 1993 19:27:52 GMT Approved: [email protected] Lines: 46 Xref: uunet news.announce.newgroups:3203 news.groups:65621 soc.culture.asean:16460 soc.culture.thai:5252 soc.culture.vietnamese:25727 soc.culture.hongkong:33052 soc.culture.china:99181 soc.culture.filipino:7885 soc.culture.australian:9702 soc.culture.indian:114441 soc.culture.tamil:5696  This is an official CALL FOR VOTES for the creation of the  newsgroup "soc.culture.malaysia".
