This is a proposed charter for ca.general. Please post comments and
suggestions in ca.news.group and ca.general. This does not currently
deal with net abuse - upcoming policy discussions will deal with that
and then the result of the discussion will be added to all the
charters.

This and previous announcements of the California UseNet Project are
also on the Web at http://www.sbay.org/ca/
  _________________________________________________________________

ca.general is an unmoderated newsgroup for topics related to
California which are not already covered by another ca.* newsgroup. It
is also to provide a general discussion area to bring together
Californians, prospective Cailfornia residents and visitors for topics
relevant to them.

Newsgroups file entry:

ca.general              Of general interest to readers in Calfornia only.

Rules in common among all the ca.* newsgroups:

The ca.* newsgroups are only for discussion of subjects related to
California. They were made for residents of California and others
interested in California. They are intended for topics directly
relevant to residents of California. The default policy is that any
topic not at least partly related to California is considered
off-topic, though the specific newsgroup charters may list exceptions.
