Proposing New Conferences for the Network:
------------------------------------------
If a U'NI-net member system would like to have a new
Conference added to the network the net Sysop should follow
this procedure:
Post a message in the UNI-net Administration Conference to
suggest the new Conference. Please use a SUBJECT: NEW
CONFERENCE <Proposed Name>. This will make it easier for
others to follow the thread. A brief description of the
contents and limits of the subject matter should be included
in the proposal if this is not obvious from the Proposed Name.
The U'NI-net Administration conference is the ONLY conference
this message should be sent to. Please do not bombard a large
list of conferences with material about a proposed conference.
The decision is in the hands of the U'NI-net Sysops, and the
UNI-NET Administration Conference is the place to find them.
Post a copy of the proposal in the UNI-USERS conference so
callers will be aware and can let their local Sysop know if they
are interested in participating in the conference if it is
approved.
If the member system finds 12 interested U'NI-net member systems
and a candidate for a Host for the Conference within 28 days he
should post a message to the U'NI-net Conference Chairman
indicating the names of the interested members, the name of the
proposed Host, and a brief description that will fit in the
following format:
Conf_Name : Conference Description......................
Maximum number of characters for Conference Name: 12
Maximum number of characters for Conference Description: 43
Though an extended description for the newly proposed
conference is not mandatory, those who wish to include
extended descriptions should follow this format:
Maximum number of lines for extended description: 5
Maximum number of characters per line: 70
The Conference Chairman may at his discretion immediately add
the proposed new Conference. He may also consult with the
U'NI-net Hubs for their advice and opinions about adding the
proposed new Conference. He may decide not to add the
proposed new Conference if he decides doing so would not be in
the best interest of the network and its members.
Notes: (1) U'NI-net is interested in adding new and
interesting conferences and members are encouraged to suggest
them. (2) The requirement of 5% of the member systems willing
to carry a new conference may be increased to a higher number
depending on the size of the network and possible other factors.
(3) Consideration should be given to the qualifications of the
proposed Conference Host - Please see "Duties of Conference
Hosts" elsewhere in this document. (4) The current Conference
Chairman is International Host, Cam Debuck
