A new USENET moderated newsgroup, mod.std.unix, is for discussions of UNIX
standards, in particular the one in progress by the IEEE P1003 "UNIX
Standards" committee.  P1003 is the successor to the /usr/group
standards committee, and many of the members are the same.

The newsgroup moderator is John Quarterman. This is what he announced: 

	"I got into this because the USENIX board appointed me to be 
	the USENIX delegate to P1003.  My function is largely to relay 
	information between the committee and the USENIX board and 
	membership (I also vote for USENIX in cases where that is 
	appropriate).  The committee considers this newsgroup to be one
	good way to do that.  I will report on the contents of the 
	newsgroup to the committee, for the benefit of those who do not
	follow the newsgroup directly.
	
	While various P1003 committee members will probably post things
	to mod.std.unix, it is best to assume that such postings are
	personal opinions of the poster, not the official position of
	the committee, nor even of the poster's company, unless it is
	specifically stated otherwise.
	
	To start with, the newsgroup will go out as individual articles.
	If volume builds, I will probably change to a digest format,
	so that discussions can be grouped together.
	
	Please mail submissions for mod.std.unix to ihnp4!ut-sally!std-unix,
	and comments about the newsgroup to ihnp4!ut-sally!std-unix-request.
	(The ARPA Internet addresses, e.g., std-unix@ut-sally.ARPA, also work.)
	Mail to my personal mail address (below) will be treated as not
	for posting, though I may reply with a request for permission to post.
	
	John Quarterman, jsq@ut-sally.ARPA, {ihnp4,seismo,ctvax}!ut-sally!jsq
