        unmoderated group comp.os.linux.embedded passes 500:8

There were 500 YES votes and 8 NO votes, for a total of 508 valid
votes.  There were 2 abstentions and 12 invalid ballots.

For a group to pass, YES votes must be at least 2/3 of all valid
(YES and NO) votes.  There must also be at least 100 more YES votes
than NO votes.

A five day discussion period follows this announcement.  If no
serious allegations of voting irregularities are raised, the
moderator of news.announce.newgroups will create the group shortly
thereafter.


Newsgroups line:
comp.os.linux.embedded  Linux operating system on embedded hardware.

Voting closed at 23:59:59 UTC, 22 Jun 2000.

This vote was conducted by a neutral third party.  Questions
about the proposed group should be directed to the proponent.

RATIONALE: comp.os.linux.embedded

It is becoming apparent that the Linux operating system has a
very bright future in the area of embedded applications; internet
appliances, wireless internet access, personal digital assistants,
television set top boxes, medical instruments, dedicated control
systems, etc. The potential for the growth of Linux in this area is
highlighted by the fact that roughly 95% of all newly manufactured
microcomputer chips are used for embedded applications.

Industry has already embraced Linux for use in embedded applications
for several reasons. The cost of licensing a commercial operating
system and the power of the open source development model are some
of the more prominent ones. The TiVo personal video recorder,
and the Empeg MP3 car player are two examples of consumer products
that utilize embedded Linux. Samsung has recently announced plans to
market the world's first Linux based PDA, named Yopy. Sony already
uses Linux based systems for developing applications for it's
Playstation2 game machine. The industry has further demonstrated
it's commitment to Linux by the recent announcement of the formation
of the Embedded Linux Consortium (ELC). It will consist of roughly
50 member companies including IBM, Lineo, Motorola and Red Hat.

Linux development has historically been oriented toward desktop
and server applications and the current comp.os.linux.* hierarchy
largely reflects this heritage. The unique nature of the technical
issues of using Linux for embedded applications, and the potential
for enormous growth are the two main reasons for the proposal of
this new Usenet newsgroup.

There will be some overlap of the charter of the proposed group
with that of the existing comp.os.linux.portable newsgroup (using
the Linux OS on portable computers). This is unavoidable since
some embedded devices are designed with the intent to provide
portable computing resources of a rather general nature (PDAs for
example). However, the universe of embedded devices that would not
be classified as a portable computer is very large (e.g. TV set top
boxes, medical instruments). It is the contention of the proponent
that the proposed group is sufficiently disjoint from the existing
comp.os.linux.portable newsgroup that the efficiency and viability
of both groups would not be negatively impacted.

Topics related to the use of Linux on embedded processors are
already frequently discussed in several existing Usenet newsgroups
and mailing lists. Statistics for such postings during the period
>from  Jan 1, 2000 to Jan 31, 2000 are shown in the table below. The

CHARTER: comp.os.linux.embedded

This newsgroup is intended to be a public forum for the discussion
of the development and use of the Linux operating system on embedded
hardware platforms. Topics considered appropriate for posting to the
group might include (but are not limited to);

  o Software Related Topics

    + Embedded Linux distributions (e.g. Lineo Embedix, Mobile Linux)
    + Software APIs for embedded Linux development (e.g. Cygnus EL/IX)
    + Development of user applications for embedded Linux
    + Integrated Development Environments for embedded Linux

  o Hardware Related Topics

    + Linux based emulators and debuggers for embedded hardware
    + Existing Linux support for specific hardware
    + Development of device drivers for embedded Linux

Topics that might appear welcome on the surface, but in fact are not
include; general questions about embedded hardware with no reference
to Linux, questions about embedded or real time programming that
are not specific to Linux, such as "What is multithreading?", or
"What is a deadlock?", etc.

One time postings of commercial product announcements or postings of
a commercial nature that are replies to another posted inquiry will
be considered appropriate. However, as in most other Usenet groups,
repeated or indiscriminant posting of commercial advertisements will
be prohibited. Postings using MIME, HTML formats are discouraged
since many Usenet readers do not use web browsers. The posting of
source code and binaries for the purpose of distribution shall be
prohibited. However, a small snippet of source code or a small patch
would be considered acceptable.

END CHARTER.
