Well, after some delay here is the charter for the proposed Comp.unix.aix
group. The discussion conducted over the past month in news.groups. It is
now time for a vote. There has been very little negative reaction but we will
need 100 more yes votes that no votes to form the group. So tell your
friends and co-workers to send in their votes.
Send your votes to fink at physics.orst.edu
Please clearly state ether;
Yes, in favor of forming the group Comp.unix.aix.
or
No, against forming the group.
__________________________Charter ____________________________
Comp.unix.aix is for the exchange of ideas, advice and general
discussion of IBM's AIX Unix and its role in the Open Software
Foundation. We wish to have an open and free exchange of ideas.
Because AIX and the related OSF/1 will be implemented on a wide
range of platforms the readership of will be a diverse group.
Discussion of issues that will interest a broad audience are
especially encouraged. Nonetheless, the focus is to remain on AIX
together with the computers it runs on, and OSF's OSF/1 system.
Readers are encouraged to consider which group may provide the best
audience for their comments. Comp.unix.i386 and comp.unix.xenix are
the appropriate places to discuss third party Unix for Intel
286/386 computers. Comp.sys.ibm.pc.rt is a good place to discuss
matters that involve the IBM RT only, including the AOS 4.3
operating system. Comp.unix.questions is always best for general
questions about Unix.
Above all the comp.unix.aix news group is a place for people to
share ideas and to learn. Tolerance and patience are needed to
foster an atmosphere where this can happen.
