[comp.mail.multi-media] 2d call for votes & mass acknowlegement for comp.text.sgml

emv@math.lsa.umich.edu (Edward Vielmetti) (08/20/90)

This is the second call for votes for comp.text.sgml, and an acknowlegement
of those who have voted so far.  Sentiment has been generally positive.

comp.text.sgml will discuss the ISO 8879 'Standard Generalized Markup
Language', systems which use it, markup languages, and structured
documents in general.  Substantive discussions about SGML and related
issues are going on in 'comp.text' right now, as well as in several of
the groups which this posting has gone to.  15 postings in the last
two weeks by my count, not a huge amount, but substantial; I would
hazard a guess that there's not more because people are also wading through
discussions of doing backslashes in troff.

I expect that comp.text.sgml will cover the following interests and
the work of the following groups:
 - the Text Encoding Initiative 
 - the Graphics Communications Association SGML activities
 - the Integrated Chameleon Architecture (from Ohio State)
 - the HyTime and Standard Music Description Language ANSI committees;
 - the SGML User's Group
plus the variety of commercial, academic, and industrial efforts which
are using, considering, or perhaps struggling with structured text
and markup languages.

There's a smallish archive of sgml materials at ftp.math.lsa.umich.edu
in the directory /pub/sgml if you want to look at what I've collected
so far, the initial call for votes, & some other stuff.

Voting is due to end at or near the end of this month; the
news.announce.newgroups posting says the 25th, but my initial
posting said the 31st.  So vote early and often.
