SECOND CALL FOR VOTES: SOC.CULTURE.EUROPE
=========================================
IMPORTANT: PLEASE VOTE ONLY ONCE!!!
If you voted after the first call for votes,
please don't vote again. This posting is for latecomers who have not
responded to the first call for votes only!!!
====================================================================
After a lenghty discussion period, I herewith bring the proposal
for the creation of this newsgroup to a vote:
The voting period shall be from March 31 through April 28, 1991. Votes
shall be e-mailed to my address or as a reply to this posting, but not
if posted in a newsgroup. Please follow the voting instructions at the
end of the section explaining the newsgroup's purpose.
Name: soc.culture.europe
Moderation: none
Goals: to discuss all aspects of an all-European nature,
such as:
- languages spoken
- cultural interaction
- travel information
- news from European capitals
- cultural events (theatre, museums, movies, tv)
- politics relating to all of Europe, such as:
- the European Communities
- the European Free Trade Association
- the European Economic Space
- Eastern Europe's re-integration with the west
- Europe after the `cold war'
- new European security structure
- the `common European house' and alternative
views
- the `European pillar in the Alliance' (NATO)
- Europe's role in international affairs
- and much more . . .
Language(s): all European languages should be accepted, but
preference might be given to languages which are
more widely understood.
Distribution: Worldwide.
As an added benefit, the soc.culture.europe would be able to provide a
forum also to those European countries currently without their own
newsgroup. Further, crosspostings with European content could be
restricted to go to s.c.e, instead being crossposted to all European
newsgroups, thus reducing overall net.jamming.
