              MODERATOR VACANCY INVESTIGATION (MVI)

              moderated group comp.std.wireless



This is a formal Moderator Vacancy Investigation (MVI), begun because

moderated newsgroup comp.std.wireless is not functioning,

and may have been abandoned by its moderator(s).



This investigation will attempt to verify the reasons for non-function,

and may result in the removal of the group or the selection and instal-

lation of a new moderator.  In practice, the Big-8 Management Board

considers the third alternative--changing the status of the group from

moderated to unmoderated--as likely to cause more harm than good.



RATIONALE:



Probe posts showed no result. According to Google's archive the last

regular post was approved on 2005-10-15.



NEWSGROUPS LINE:



comp.std.wireless	Examining standards for wireless network technology. (Moderated)



DISTRIBUTION:



news.announce.newgroups

news.groups.proposals

comp.std.misc



CHARTER OF COMP.STD.WIRELESS



The primary goal of this newsgroup would be to to promote consistency and

mutual awareness between existing committees (e.g., IEEE 802.11 and ETSI

RES-10) and any future committees. The newsgroup would expedite their

deliberations by providing a convenient forum for technical discussion between

their scheduled meetings.  Additionally, the open nature of the newsgroup would

help the standardization process by allowing people not normally connected with

the standards groups to provide their input.  The newsgroup would have no

official standing with any standards group or other organization.



A secondary goal would be to explore applications for wireless network

technology.  The emerging standards must, after all, correctly anticipate

these applications.



	Acceptable Postings:

		Any questions, comments, results, or suggestions which are 

		related to any of the existing committees discussing wireless

		technologies.  This can include, but is not limited to, 

		current research, development or general applications of

		wireless networks.



HISTORY OF THE GROUP:



comp.std.wireless is a moderated newsgroup which passed its vote for

creation by 182:12 as reported in news.announce.newgroups on 11 June 1993.



PROPONENT:



Alexander Bartolich <alexander.bartolich@gmx.at>
