28 Topics. (soc.history.war.vietnam)
The charter requires that postings deal with the Indochina Wars, their
antecedents and their aftermath. This is to include political philosophy
and social factors. This also means the mind set of all the participants
at the time, and in the present to the extent that this reflects on the
aftermath of the wars. It was made clear from the outset that this was a
multi-discipline newsgroup, not just history. It is set up as such in the
charter.
Posters should restrict their comments to the above. Posts containing ANY
material not included within the scope of the newsgroup, or legitimate
rebuttal to material already posted, will be returned or the off-topic
material will be redacted.
A word about current event postings - these articles need to conform
to the topic guideline. That is, the submission must directly link to
the Indochina Wars and their aftermath. Such topics might include:
POW/MIAs, refugee issues, drug trade, prostitution, environment issues
arising from herbicides, old ordinance, etc. This does not include
the current policies of the Hanoi government, economic trade (except
as it is tied to a war related issue) or similiar topics. Such article are
more properly included in bit.listserv.seasia-l or one of the soc.culture.x
groups.
The decision as to an article being admissible resides with the moderators,
who were named as part of the voting process for the newsgroup, and their
successors, as provided in the charter. Further comments on the propriety
of material shall be deemed as flames, and rejected.
Discussion of, or complaints with, the moderating process should be directed to
the newsgroup news.groups, and is not appropriate within the newsgroup
