This is the 2nd CFV to create the newsgroup comp.dcom.cell-relay.
Included are the original CFV and an acknowledgement of votes
received as of 8:10 EST, April 9, 1992.

NAME: 

          comp.dcom.cell-relay

STATUS:
          unmoderated


DESCRIPTION:

	  Forum for discussion of Cell Relay based networks


CHARTER:

     To provide a forum for the submission of articles and inquiries
dealing with networks using Cell Relay as a transport; including
local, metropolitan, and wide area networks.  For the purposes of this
group, the term "cell" is taken to mean a small, fixed-sized,
information-bearing unit that provides the foundation for transport
and multiplexing of a wide range of user traffic types; each of which
may require varying grades of service (e.g. bounds on delay variance).
Examples of user traffic that might be accomodated by a Cell Relay
network include voice (sound), video, and data.  A specific example of
a cell-based technology is Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM).  Examples
of networks or services that will use Cell-Relay based technology
include Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network (B-ISDN),
Distributed Queue Dual Bus (DQDB), Switched Multimegabit Data Service
(SMDS based on DQDB).  In addition, it is expected that "raw"
ATM-based local area networks will become widespread.

The inclusion of "cell-relay" in the group's name was purposeful
in that it is intended to distinguish this technology from that
used in other high-speed networks e.g. FDDI, 45Mb/s Frame-Relay.

Posts of the following types are expected:

o  Any and all questions concerning these technologies
o  User experiences with Cell Relay based networks
o  Announcements of conferences, conventions, etc.
o  Product descriptions
o  Applications made possible by this technology
o  News of public service offerings
o  Research findings
o  Conjecture as to the future of Cell Relay based technology
   (e.g. time frames, projected costs, etc.)

though this is not intended to be an exhaustive list.

This list is not intended to be a forum in which standards are
developed, though it seems reasonable to relate news pertaining to the
progress of recognized standards bodies.

It is fully expected that the range of discussion will quickly result
in the need for an expanded hierarchy under comp.dcom.cell-relay.  We
will cross that bridge when we get to it and use experience gained in
this forum to proceed.

VOTES:
-----

ONLY VOTES RECEIVED BY MAY 1, 23:59 Central Standard Time
WILL BE COUNTED

TO VOTE YES: send mail to cell_yes@mythos.ucs.indiana.edu with a
subject line or message body that reads "I vote YES to  
comp.dcom.cell-relay."

TO VOTE NO: send mail to cell_no@mythos.ucs.indiana.edu with a
subject line or message body that reads "I vote NO to  
comp.dcom.cell-relay."

Only votes mailed to the above addresses will be counted.  Ambiguous
votes or votes with qualifications ("I would vote yes for
comp.dcom.cell-relay provided that...") will not be counted.  In the
case of multiple votes from a given person, only the last will be
counted.

If you have questions about or want to cancel your vote, you can send
mail to cellvote@mythos.ucs.indiana.edu.  Actual votes mailed to that
address will not be counted.

OTHER
-----

Since I am acting both as the proposer and vote-taker for this group,
and since there has been discussion in news.groups on appropriate
behavior of someone in my position, I hereby give notice that until
the end of the voting period I will not engage in any discussion of
comp.dcom.cell-relay that requires me to express my opinions, nor will
I send any mail campaigning for votes to be sent other than the
periodic repetitions of this post that will be sent during the voting
period.  I do intend to send this CFV as a direct mailing to all
persons I am aware of who have expressed either support or opposition
to this group during the discussion period.

This Call For Votes, along with acknowledgements of votes received
will be posted several times throughout the voting period.

Acknowledgement of votes received as of 8:10 EST, April 9, 1992.
----------------------------------------------------------------

Both YES and NO votes are combined and sorted below.

 - Sites that arrived via UUCP should scan the list for their
   path to me. e.g.  
rutgers!ames!brahms.amd.com!roberts@iuvax.cs.indiana.edu 

   will appear under the lowercase "r" section of the list.

 - Be mindful of the the various header formats when scanning the
   list for your vote.  You may not be listed where you expect to be.
