Following this comment period, the Big-8<br /> Management Board has decided by 3/3 consensus to create unmoderated<br /> newsgroup comp.infosystems.gemini.<br /> <br /> NEWSGROUP LINE:<br /> <br /> comp.infosystems.gemini Internet Hypertext System, Privacy, Accessibility.<br /> <br /> CHARTER:<br /> <br /> This newsgroup covers the Gemini information space served via the Gemini<br /> internet protocol, related concepts and tools created by its community.<br /> <br /> Gemini is an internet protocol to primarily serve human readable content.<br /> Served content is not limited to text. Transfer is encrypted for privacy.<br /> <br /> Most content served by Gemini is written in Gemtext, a primitive markup<br /> language that contains a limited set of line types to semantically<br /> structure text and link to other resources. Although the protocol is<br /> content type agnostic, Gemtext is prevalent in the known information<br /> space. As Gemtext can be read without the need of complex clients (such as<br /> XHTML browsers) the published information space offers good accessibility.<br /> The Gemini protocol and Gemtext content type are not to be extended per<br /> definition and community consent.<br /> <br /> DISTRIBUTION:<br /> <br /> This document has been posted to the following newsgroups:<br /> <br /> news.announce.newgroups news.groups.proposals<br /> <br /> PROPONENT:<br /> <br /> noscript &lt;september@noulin.net&gt;<br /> <br /> CHANGE HISTORY:<br /> <br /> 2021-02-10 1st RFD.
