209.0. "USENET rec.arts.disney" by SENIOR::GOLDBERG (Len --> �o� & ��� in 148 days) Fri Jun 29 1990 16:07

    There is a proposal to start a Disney newsgroup on the USENET. 
    Attached is the call for votes.  Perhaps someone with more experience
    with the DECWRL gateway can reply here as to how to send mail to this
    guy.  I'm not sure if my vote got out.

    I'll keep you posted on the results of this newsgroup.

    	answer a YES vote like this in VAXmail:
    
    	MAIL>	send	:nm%DECWRL::"[email protected]"
    		CC	:
    		Subject	:  A vote YES fro Disney Group!
    
    
    	BE SURE the quotes are included so the DECWRL Internet gateway
    knows to take the address inside the quotes as where to route this
    message to.
    
    	If you are unfamiliar with Internet addresses,  USER = krieg
    and their NODE = ylum and it looks like the work at a company named GE
    (derived from ge.com)  the .med part of the name I can't guess it's
    meaning.
    
    	To turn that around my Internet address would be:

    Linda,
    
    USENET  is one  of  the  other  networks beside EASYNET (DEC's internal
    network), it a public international network which ties universaries and
    businesses across the world  in  which  DEC  has  a  gateway  to.  It's
    basicly a unorganized depository of mail  messages  whose subject field
    is used to determine if it's a  new  message or a reply to one, similar
    to notes, but not the same.
    
    As  far as Disney.Note  going  away,  Len,  Mike  and  Myself  have  no
    intention at the moment to close/transfer etc., this USENET group would
    be  totally  seperate  from Disney.Note.  Since both  Len  and  I  have
    XRN.EXE (DXRN.EXE in my case, uVAX II/GPX workstation) which allows you
    to read the USENET, we will be posting (as Len allready has) any useful
    info found there.
    
    For those of you who wish to know  more/sample the USENET, you can look
    at  UFP::XRN conferrence and inthere is a kit note  describing  how  to
    install XRN/DXRN on your system and run.

    Actually XRN.EXE, DXRN.EXE and MXRN.EXE are various versions of the X -
    windows News Reader  for  Usenet,  based  on  the  various  DEC systems
    running DECwindows.  
    
    The character cell reader  (for  VT100's,  VT200's  etc) is VNEWS.EXE I
    think, and the its corresponding conferrence  is at CLO::VNEWS.

    Well, it seems that rec.arts.disney passed.
    
    This morning when I ran vnews, it asked me if I wanted to join it...

209.9Using USENET ??BIZNIS::ABELOWMon Aug 06 1990 14:1817
RE:  .8

>>    Perhaps someone could post a consice explanation of how to access

Any takers out there??  I tried to get set up to access USENET as decribed
in the NOTESFILES referenced in earlier responses to this note, but with no
success.  EASY to understand instructions on how to get set up, how to
access USENET, and any limitations that we might encounter in doing so
(e.g., must we have a certain op system, windows, etc....) would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks

209.10XRN/MXRN/DXRNWEDOIT::BERUBEClaude G.Mon Aug 06 1990 14:2927
    Well  if it's using  either  XRN/DXRN/MXRN,  you  need  to  be  running
    DECwindows in the appropriate ops VMS/ULTRIX.
    
    See UFP::XRN for the location of the kit.
    
    For me it was a matter of simply coping the files to my account
    
    define in my login
    
        $ DXRN:==@mydisk:[my.account]DXRN.COM
    
    typing
    
        DXRN SHLUMP
    
    and I was on my way.
    
    When you first invoke DXRN, you don't have a NEWS.RC file and DXRN will
    create a new one for you and  ask  based  on  the  server you are using
    (SHLUMP in my case) which newsgroup do you  wish to subscribe to (there
    are many).  Once you finish selecting those you wish, you may then view
    the  selected newsgroups.  DXRN has built in help and is very  easy  to
    learn.
    
    Now as far as VNEWS I have no idea.

CHARTER
 
rec.arts.disney.misc 
  For general Disney discussion and topics that don't fall into any of the 
  other categories.  This includes FAQs, Disney Stores, corporate rumours, 
  collectables, conventions, music, comics/books, etc.  This newsgroup 
  would replace the existing rec.arts.disney newsgroup, which will be
  removed after three months to allow time for traffic to migrate.
 
rec.arts.disney.parks 
  For discussion of all the parks (Disneyland, Epcot, Magic Kingdom,
  MGM Studios, Tokyo Disneyland, Disneyland Paris, etc) and related 
  matters including (but not limited to) the resorts.
 
rec.arts.disney.movies 
  The feature movies released to theaters (both animated and live-action), 
  trivia lists, mass-market merchandising, animation errors, etc.
 
rec.arts.disney.social 
  Where any and all fans of Disney may meet to share their enthusiasm with 
  other fans.  For all role-playing activities and long-running scenarios.  
  For discussion of gatherings at the theme parks, on IRC, etc.  For stories, 
  poems, parodies, and songs written by fans.
 
rec.arts.disney.television 
  The Disney Channel, and Monday through Friday daytime and
  Saturday/Sunday morning television cartoons and animation.  Anything
  currently or previously broadcast on television by Disney.  Products
  marketed by Disney for home viewing on television, including anything
  produced by Disney Television Animation or Buena Vista, and Home Video
  releases.
 
 
Rationale: Rec.arts.disney is a very high volume newsgroup, with traffic
running 700 to 900 articles per week (according to the July arbitron, 
traffic for that month was 3651 articles).  There are a number of 
frequently discussed topics that are of particular interest to distinct 
groups of people that are largely unrelated to each other.  Signal to 
noise ratio is probably pretty good, if you happen to be one of the few 
people who are interested in all of them.  Otherwise, the noise level is 
very high.  The topic of splitting the newsgroup comes up often, always 
accompanied by complaints from users about the high volume and the noise.
 
An informal sampling of all articles posted to rec.arts.disney during a 
two-week period in September showed that approximately 30 to 35 percent 
of the traffic can be attributed to discussion about the theme parks.  It 
has been suggested that rec.parks.theme might be an appropriate place to 
move this discussion, though it appears that people interested in Disney 
theme parks will naturally migrate to rec.arts.disney and educating them 
about a related newsgroup in a different hierarchy might not be an easy 
task.
