The creation message for the group uk.comp.mobile has just been issued.

For your newsgroups file:
uk.comp.mobile Mobile computing - devices, software & applications

CHARTER: uk.comp.mobile

This group is for the discussion of all aspects of mobile computing.
This includes the hardware, operating systems, and applications
that run on mobile computers, as well as the use, development
and impact of those devices.

Mobile in this context is used to describe devices which are small
enough to be carried easily (in the hand, a pocket or handbag for
example) or are wearable.

As technology changes rapidly, there is no hard specific definition
about what is included, but current examples would be smartphones,
multifunction GPS devices, small tablet computers, PDA's, etc.

Advertising

Advertising is forbidden.


Binaries & Formatting

Encoded binaries (e.g. pictures, compressed files, etc.) are
forbidden. Such material belongs on a web or FTP site to which
a pointer may be posted. Cryptographic signatures (e.g. PGP)
may be used where authentication is important and should be as
short as possible.

Posts must be readable as plain text. HTML, RTF and similarly
formatted messages are prohibited. To see how to make some
common newsreaders comply with this, read
<http://www.usenet.org.uk/ukpost.html>.

Warning. Anyone posting contrary to this charter may be reported to
their "postmaster" and/or Service Provider.
