RESULT
sci.physics.acoustics will be created
The Last Call for Comments (LCC) on 2010-04-03 initiated a five-day
period for final comments. Following this comment period, the Big-8
Management Board has decided by vote to create unmoderated group
sci.physics.acoustics.
Vote results (yes-no-abstain): 10-0-0
NEWSGROUPS LINE:
For your newsgroups file:
sci.physics.acoustics Topics in acoustics and vibrations.
RATIONALE:
The group alt.sci.physics.acoustics in the same topic space was
started in 1995 and has been a successful group with productive
discussion since, but has not had the more broadly accepted Big 8
newsgroup posture.
FEEDBACK:
The following comments favored the formation of
sci.physics.acoustics:

CHARTER:
This news group is intended for serious discussion on all technical
fields of acoustics and vibration as indicated by the Acoustical
Society of America. See page B1 in the 2006 (Green) ASA membership
directory. These are:
Architectural Acoustics
Engineering Acoustics
Musical Acoustics
Noise Acoustics
Physical Acoustics-
Animal Bioacoustics (now includes Acoustical Oceanography)
Psychological & Physiological Acoustics
Structural and Vibrations Acoustics
Speech Communications Acoustics
Underwater & Propagation Acoustics
Biomedical Ultrasound Acoustics
Bioresponse to Vibration Acoustics
Signal Processing in Acoustics
1. Consider this news group to be where Hello's are exchanged
followed by knowledgeable discussions on acoustics and vibration
question that may evolve. However, detailed repartee on elementary
hobbies such as loudspeaker design and amplified audio problems
should be discussed elsewhere on hobby groups, etc.
2. Our discussions should be concise, involving relatively short
messages; a few screen-loads usually suffice.
3. Avoid public debate that switches to smaller and smaller matters.
Private E-Mail is for that. Rather, stick to main issues from which
all of us will learn and also enjoy the benefits of this public
medium.
4. Resist the temptation to author large treatises here. Save that
energy for a separate E-mail file targeted to a recipient, or the
telephone
5. When including a copy of the message to which you respond, DELETE
all extraneous, non-germane lines. Leave only pertinent succinct
lines that will precede your learned response.
6. AVOID quarrelsome and profane language that ultimately detract
from the credibility of the arguments and the validity of the
information presented.
7. AVOID ad hominem and defamatory comments.
8. Brief "Jobs Available" or "Help Needed" postings are welcome
during economic malaise.
In these ways, we will all welcome and enjoy each other's thoughts.
POLICY IN LIEU OF MODERATION:
The group will be unmoderated. Messages which are off topic,
profane, spam, inflammatory, personal attacks, unduly argumentative,
or excessive "Jobs available" announcements are discouraged.
DISTRIBUTION:
