For your newsgroups file:
alt.os.cpv Community newsgroup for users of the Xerox CP-V operating system.
Is it CPV or CP-V? Is the latter, then alt.os.cp-v in the group name.
The description is a phrase made up of key words; don't use community or newsgroup as they aren't key words, and don't repeat CP-V. What else
tersely describes the operating system? Why was it written?
CHARTER:
Discussion of Xerox CP-V and related Sigma operating systems including >BPM/BTM, UTS, and CP-R.
Where are these operating systems being discussed RIGHT NOW on Usenet?
Have you started on topic threads in newsgroups so that you are known
for discussing the operating systems?
JUSTIFICATION:
Work with simh has reached a point at which it is now possible to boot
CP-V. Several developers have been involved in this project, and it
should now be possible to move to the stage at which general users are
able to run CP-V.
Justification is a count of articles in which the topic is discussed,
not just mentioned incidentally, so the proponent knows where to promote
the group. At a minimum, you want an average of 10 articles of
discussion a day over a recent 90 day period.
This group is similar to other newsgroups for discontinued operating
systems such as alt.os.multics, alt.os.beos, and alt.windows95.
Give me a break. This is irrelevant. Are you saying this is a
discontinued operating system?
