RATIONALE: soc.culture.indian.goa
Goa (population 1.35 million, area 3700 square kilometres) is India's
smallest state, with an unusual past and a colourful present. In spite of
being a small region, it is often discussed in the print media, the Internet
and generally in the media.
It was a Portuguese colony from 1510 to 1961, and from the 1980s till date
(i.e. the time this newsgroup was sought to be set up) has been widely known
as a tourist destination both in India and across the globe. In the early
stages of Portuguese rule and prior to that, it was also known across the
globe as a emporium of trade and commerce.
Many Goans (as people from the region are called) have migrated across the
globe, and have been among the early adoptors of the Net. Visitors and
potential visitors to the region are also interested in keeping abrest with
happenings here, and often seek answers to their queries about Goa,
sometimes prior to visiting the region.
Goa has long been seen as an important meeting point for East and West, and
a global trading centre -- in both goods and ideas, one would argue -- for
centuries. Goa's proportionately large expat population means many find in
the Net a tool to link up with the outside world. These factors, taken
together, results in the Internet being strongly relevant to the region, and
unofficial estimates put the number of cybercafes in this small region at a
few hundred (over 500, according to one estimate).
This region has been discussed via mailing-lists at least since 1994.
Currently there are quite a few mailing lists discussing general Goa-related
issues, or specific concerns (relating to researchers working on Goa, the
Konkani language which is widely spoken locally, one for networking
professional journalists, another for computer professionals, lists building
cyber-communities among specific expat Goan communities, cyber-networks for
tiny villages from the region, lists for plant-enthusiasts etc).
Currently, a search for Goa-related postings show that there are a total of
approx 11,000 references in newsgroups. This is after ensuring the specific
exclusion of terms like the Gun Owners of America, the acronym of which also
reads 'GOA' but is not remotely related to this subject.
These figures are from Google's Usenet archives, and go back to the time
when these archives were kept. On an average day, there are 5-10 postings
related to Goa. (See http://groups.google.com)
There is a need to encourage more people to appreciate the potential of
Usenet, post and contribute to the building up of public-accessible body
knowledge about this region. Facilities to post to Newsgroups via mail2news
services, and the ability to read postings via websites such as
http://groups.google.com could enable greater participation in such a
venture.
Three of Goa's main mailing lists attract between 6-20 posts each, per day.
In all, the total number of subscribers of various Goa-linked mailing lists
would range to an estimated 6000 (six thousand) email addresses.
Clearly going by interest shown in cyberspace, particularly on
mailing-lists, there would be considerable interest in having a newsgroup
devoted to Goa; right now, none such exists. Some Indian states have their
own dedicated newsgroups.
(Currently existing groups deal with other Indian regional entities such as
Delhi, Gujarat, Jammu-Kashmir, Karnataka, Kerala and languages such as
Marathi and Telugu, among others.)
A dedicated newsgroup soc.culture.indian.goa could take care of those
interested in making Goa-related postings to a specific group meant for that
purpose. This would be a sub-category nested within the wider category of
soc.culture.indian. We believe there is also enough interest to sustain such
a newsgroup, dealing specifically with Goa.
Currently, Goa-related postings to newsgroups are scattered across a wide
range of groups. While this is desirable (in as much as these postings
related to a wide range of subjects -- travel, Indian classical music,
radio, history, etc), there is also the feeling that it would help to have a
newsgroup that would consolidate postings directly related to Goa and
encourage further postings of direct relevance to Goa.
This proposal is for launching a newsgroup called soc.culture.indian.goa
CHARTER: soc.culture.indian.goa
The newsgroup soc.culture.indian.goa shall be a forum devoted to the
discussion of Goa -- its peoples, arts, culture, traditions, literature,
books, news, history and the like -- in a free atmosphere.
Goa is a small region located on the west coast of India. (Population 1.35
million, area 3700 sq.km.) It was once known as a trading centre, then a
Portuguese colony (from a long span of four-and-half centuries, 1510-1961)
and, more recently, as a widely visited tourist destination. In 1987, it
became India's 25th (and smallest) state. People in Goa speak or otherwise
use a number of languages, including Konkani, English, Marathi, Portuguese
and Hindi. Other languages taught in the region include, occasionally or
regularly, include French, Italian and German. There are speakers of other
languages, including Kannada from the adjoining state of Karnataka,
currently living in the state of Goa. This small region can thus claim to be
a meeting-point for various cultures and languages, from within South Asia
and beyond.
Issues related to politics, language, religion, and such are to be discussed
in a non-abrasive fashion, and then only if specifically relevant to Goa's
past or present. Queries, requests for information and replies to the same
would be appreciated.
Discussions promoting or advocating hatred, especially based on religion,
language, ethnic origin, etc., are not to be conducted via this forum.
All postings must be in ordinary text format only; no special format files
(BinHex, MIME, UUEncode, etc.) are to be posted. However, an exception to
this rule will be PGP and related similar small binaries, which are allowed.
Crossposting of articles irrelevant to Goa or spamming with commercial posts
send to random groups and lists is expressly disallowed.
Also discouraged are personals and personal messages, any postings of a
purely commercial nature, and ad hominem attacks of any kind.
This group is being kept moderated. Needless to say, every attempt will be
made to promote free speech, while at the same time avoiding all sorts of
spam, irrelevant postings, offensive and abusive postings and thus retain
quality and usefulness of the proposed newsgroup.
Duties of the moderators would be to ensure maximum openness for expression
of views, while at the same time ensuring the minimization (if not
elimination) of all form of spam, abusive postings and those which do not
take further onwards the general awareness about Goa. Multiple moderators
are envisaged to ensure the continued activity of this group, if agreed to
and set up.
