********************************************************************** IEEE NEWS GROUP ********************************************************************* I am interested in starting a new newsgroup for IEEE enthusiasts. Planned subgroups include communications, computers, aerospace, circuits, microwave, engineering management and any other topic of interest to users of the newsgroup (suggestions welcome). The news group will br entitled ieee with subgroups like ieee.comp (Computer Society), ieee.com (Communications), and with capability to add subgroups based on needs of the readers and user. The news group is open to people interested in IEEE, and also people interested in activities in engineering in general, to help publicize meeting / talk announcements, useful discussions, creative suggestions and any cooperative projects (Example : seeking coauthors for papers; seeking volunteers for technical committees) General discussions of engineering and computer science professions covering topics like pension, ethics, age discrimination, alien engineers, unemployment, licensure and registration, women engineers, U.S. technology policies, continuing education, salary/opinion surveys, entrepreneurial activities, students' concerns are highly potential. SUMMARY ------- THE USERS OF THE NEWS GROUP NEED NOT BE IEEE MEMBERS. This news group will be helpful to streamline the IEEE related activities of all the USENET users. Please post your responses (YES/NO votes), further enquiries & suggestions to this news group ( news.groups) or to me and / or call or write to : K.R.S. Murthy Room 1G-306 AT&T Bell Labs 480 Red Hill Road Middletown New Jersey U.S.A. 07748 (201)-615-4629 ..!att!hou2d!krsm THE NEWS GROUP'S USEFULNESS AND CREATION OF SUBGROUPS DEPENDS ON ALL YOU (ALL OF US). SO PLEASE RESPOND WITH BOTH POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE COMMENTS SOON TO ME OR POST THEM TO news.groups. Thanks K.R.S.

It is a great idea to start ieee news groups. I am very enthusiastic about it. Positive or negative comments, I think, should come later, i.e after starting the news groups. -Ramesh Ravula ------------------------------------------------------------------------ \\\ Long live all Workaholics!!!!!\\\\\\\\ email : rravula@wright.edu -------------------------------------------------------------------------
