SCI.VIRTUAL-WORLDS.APPS
 -----------------------

This is a Request for a Discussion of a proposed newsgroup,

                    sci.virtual-worlds.apps

as a place to announce and discuss pending and actual applications of
virtual worlds technology in industrial, commercial, educational, and
entertainment settings.

Calling for the creation of this newsgroup are the founders and
current moderators of sci.virtual-worlds, Bob Jacobson and Mark De
Loura.

For over 18 months we have presided over the increasingly complex and
useful dialogues that have taken place on sci.v-w.  It's our opinion
that the conversations there are now varied enough to merit the
spinning off of a second newsgroup dedicated to actual applications of
the technology.  Surveys indicate we have a readership equalling
nearly two percent of the total USENET subscribership, or over
100,000 readers, a very diverse crowd.

In the past, mailing lists have formed to handle such specific topics
as software requirements for headsets and gloves, but we foresee a
larger need: the chance to publicly announce and discuss applications
of virtual worlds technology.  We need this to answer the challenge
issued by Warren Robinett, one of our field's leading designers,
advanced at the ICAT 92 conference in Tokyo, to "show me one good
application."  We need this to kickstart our industry.

The HIT Lab will continue to sponsor sci.virtual-worlds.  It's our
belief that sci.virtual-worlds should continue on as a general forum
for our community, perhaps one more focused on cutting edge research
and philosophical issues.  These are still very important.  This will
be up to the new moderators and ongoing participants, of course.

sci.virtual-worlds.apps will be a place to take these discussions one
step farther, into the domain of serious applications.

We will have a two-week open period of debate and comment on this
proposal, in sci.virtual-worlds and other relevant newsgroups, on the
WELL, and in the traditional forum of news.announce.newgroups.  Then
we will call for a formal vote.  If there is a net positive vote of
100 participants, we will create sci.virtual-worlds.apps and announce
its formation to you.  We propose to create archives appropriate to
the the discussion of applications and to work with the moderators of
sci.virtual-worlds to faciliate a continuing interexchange between
these sibling newsgroups.

Thank you for considering this proposal.  We believe it is necessary
for a newsgroup to exist in which to advance the state of our art
through the discussion of applications and their economic, commercial,
and social implications.  We welcome your comments and support.

Dear Dr. Downes-Martin

I am pleased to have a message from you and to continue our contacts. Your
information about possible contracts with the West is very interesting to us.

Our activity in this field may be led in two directions. The first, connected
with the Computing Center, is scientific work (mathematical models, methods of
optimization and simulation, decision support systems and software).

Here is the information about our department.
