frisk@rhi.hi.is (Fridrik Skulason) (08/10/90)
This is the second CALL FOR VOTES for the creation of the newsgroup comp.ai.philosophy, as well as a mass acknowledgement of votes already received and counted. One minor change - In the original CALL FOR VOTES, posted on Aug 1st, I said the vote would end on August 21st. As the message did not appear on news.announce.newsgroups until Aug 5th, the voting period was extended to August 26th. VOTING PROCEDURE (unchanged from first call for votes): Mail all votes to me, frisk@rhi.hi.is (Fridrik Skulason). Please state either "Yes, comp.ai.philosophy" or "No, comp.ai.philosophy" in the Subject: of the message. Votes posted to comp.ai or news.groups will not be counted. If the header is substantially different, I can not guarantee that the vote will be counted. GROUP CHARTER (unchanged): Name: comp.ai.philosophy Purpose: To provide a forum for the discussion of the philosophical aspect of AI, in particular various thought experiments, like the Chinese Room and the Turing Test. Discussion on the nature of "thinking" and "understanding", and whether computers will ever be able to "think" and "understand" belongs here as well. This group is created to remove this discussion from comp.ai. Moderation: No. A total of 178 votes have been received, see list below: 880716a%AcadiaU.CA@SEARN.SUNET.SE ACSCMTM%UBVMS.BITNET@SEARN.SUNET.SE ahmad@ICSI.Berkeley.EDU (Subutai Ahmad) Alicia.Perez@B.GP.CS.CMU.EDU als@mbunix.mitre.org (Schafer) andress@demon.siemens.com (Keith M Andress) Andrew Csinger <csinger@cs.ubc.ca> Andrew G.
