CFV: misc.entrepreneurs.moderated moderated
Ron Asbestos Dippold
moderated group misc.entrepreneurs.moderated
Newsgroups line:
misc.entrepreneurs.moderated Entrepreneur/business topics. (Moderated)
Votes must be received by 23:59:59 UTC, 13 December 1994.
This vote is being conducted by a neutral third party. For voting
questions only contact rdip...@qualcomm.com. For questions about the
proposed group contact Steven Garman <suga...@world.std.com>
CHARTER
The newsgroup is for the purposes of moderated discussion of
entrepreneurial and small-business topics, like: starting a business,
finding capital, running operations, controlling costs, obtaining
appropriate products and services, handling employees, filing patents,
handling tax laws, obtaining credit-card and check processing, etc.
_____________________________________
The following will be allowed:
Entrepreneurial discussions.
Discussions on operating a small business.
MLM discussions.
Business methodologies and philosophies.
Business conferences/seminars from gov agencies or universities.
Business conferences/seminars from some NPOs.
Informational postings of news articles.
Sigs (which may contain ads) that do not exceed 6 lines.
Sigs that exceed 6 lines, but will be clipped by the moderator.
Limited discussions on the group's moderation policies.
The following will not be allowed:
Spams of any sort.
MAKE.MONEY.FAST and other such illegal postings.
Blatant advertisements for products or services.
China Business Journal and things like it.
Business conferences/seminars from private organizations.
MLM discussions that advertise or promote an MLM.
Investor/capitalist proposals and contacts.
Excessive discussions on the group's moderation policies.
Anti- or Pro-MLM diatribes.
Flames (will be referred to email).
The following will be allowed, but discouraged by the moderator:
Posts that were intended to be private responses.
_____________________________________
Posts will be judged strictly by the above criteria, and by whichever
moderator that is doing the work. Rejected posts will not be
returned; instead, a form letter might be returned, which will have a
checklist denoting the problem(s) that caused the rejection.
Changes to the moderation policies are the duty and responsibility of
the moderator. Before changes are done, the moderator will do two
things: 1) Run any proposed changes by the AM(s), to gain AM advice.
2) Post proposed policy changes to the newsgroup, to obtain reader
advice.
Transfers of moderation workload will take place by the moderator's
arrangement with one of the AMs. Once arranged, the moderator will
place the target AM Internet address(es) in his ".forward" file. This
will be done for as long as the arrangement called for.
New assistant moderators may be added, in a voting procedure that
mimics the CFV procedure. The proposed, added, assistant moderator
will be presented to the newsgroup in an pseudo-CFV, by the moderator;
yea/nay votes will be collected by the moderator via email for 2
weeks (votes which are only posted will be ignored); the outcome must
be 2/3rds in favor, in order to accept the new assistant moderator.
Once there are 3 AMs, no new nominations will be accepted until such
time as the moderation group (primary and assistants) agrees that
there is a need for additional AMs.
The moderator and AMs will exchange phone numbers and keep in touch,
to minimize newsgroup downtime if a transferral of moderation needs
to take place.
MODERATOR:
Steven Garman <suga...@world.std.com>
MODERATION ADDRESS:
misc...@world.std.com
WHY THIS CFV SHOULD PASS:
The newsgroup misc.entrepreneurs has been overrun by advertising for
some time, but moderating that newsgroup raises issues of censorship.
It seems accomodating to many users that a new newsgroup be created,
side by side with misc.entrepreneurs, that will offer moderated
discussion free from advertising of the nature that has made
misc.entrepreneurs nearly unreadable.
HOW TO VOTE
Send MAIL to: vot...@qualcomm.com
Just Replying should work if you are not reading this on a mailing list.
Your mail message should contain one of the following statements:
I vote YES on misc.entrepreneurs.moderated
I vote NO on misc.entrepreneurs.moderated
You may also ABSTAIN in place of YES/NO - this will not affect the outcome.
Anything else may be rejected by the automatic vote counting program. The
votetaker will respond to your received ballots with a personal acknowledge-
ment by mail - if you do not receive one within several days, try again.
It's your responsibility to make sure your vote is registered correctly.
One vote counted per person, no more than one per account. Addresses and
votes of all voters will be published in the final voting results list.
