As stated in the original charter for comp.lang.ansi-iso,
"
Newsgroup : comp.lang.pascal.ansi-iso
Status : unmoderated
Distribution : Worldwide
Summary : For discussion of the ISO/ANSI Pascal standard language
Proponent : Scott A. Moore (sam@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
)
Charter:
This group will serve for discussions of all Pascal implementations
based on the ISO and ANSI Pascal standards, programs and programming in
those languages, the standards themselves, and other issues.
As discussed in the previous RFD round, it is not the intent to discuss
only standard features/functions, but ANY application of or extention
to Pascals that use the standards for a basis. I forsee these including:
Further (upcoming) standards for Pascal, including the
object Pascal standard.
Operating system specific applications of standard Pascal.
Machine specific applications of standard Pascal.
****table GUI interfaces for standard Pascal.
And others.
Mailing lists:
No known mailing lists exist
"
Note please I have, with some effort, gone back to find the original
charter as placed in the original call for votes that created the group
comp.lang.pascal.ansi-iso.
As Mr. Falconer, a person who is active in standard Pascal matters,
has stated several times about matters that do or do not belong in
comp.lang.pascal.ansi-iso, I would hope that these complaints would be
referred to the charter of the group, which was included above, and
was voted on, and passed, with the creation of the group.
So, to the specific idea of whether or not the original discussion
had a place on the group, it discussed the difference between IP Pascal
and FPC, the former being ISO and (old) ANSI standard. If your
interpretation of the above charter is different, please continue
the discussion.
comp.lang.pascal.ansi-iso was replaced back on the reply list because
again, I consider this to be of interest to that group.
