The charter, culled from the vote result announcement:

Soc.culture.ethiopia.moderated will serve as a forum for the discussion of
cultures, politics, history, economics, science, and other issues related
to Ethiopia.  Usenet readers interested in Ethiopia, including Ethiopians
of all ethnic backgrounds, are welcome to participate.

Topics for discussion will include, but are by no means limited to,
the following:

1) Culture, history, politics, geography, and language;

2) Human rights concerns in the aftermath of the Mengitsu regime;
political parties; Ethiopia's role in decolonization

3) The concerns of Ethiopia's various nationalities; prospects for
ethnic harmony in Ethiopia;

4) Impediments, real or perceived, to democratization and economic
development in Ethiopia; the role of international lending
institutions, donor states, and non-governmental organizations;
commerce and trade, including exchange rates; joint ventures and
investment in Ethiopia; copyright and patent law for those who wish to
invest in Ethiopia

5) Literacy and folklore; literature, arts, music

6) Religion in Ethiopia

7) Tourism; hotels and restaurants

8) Ethiopian cuisine

9) Education in Ethiopia

10) Ethiopian sports figures

11) Science and technology in Ethiopia.  Computer technology
development, standardization, and patent and copyright use in
Ethiopia; internet access in Ethiopia; word processing programs for
Ethiopic/Amharic script; internet access in Ethiopia

12) Ethiopians living outside of Ethiopia, and non-Ethiopians who want
to visit, live, or invest in Ethiopia.

Soc.culture.ethiopia.moderated shall be a moderated group.

Anyone may volunteer to join the moderation panel with the consent of
a two-thirds supermajority of the current moderators.  Moderators also
may be removed by a 2/3 supermajority of the moderation panel.  Of
course, moderators may resign of their own volition at any time.

Submissions that fall into the following categories shall be rejected:

1) Posts that do not pertain to Ethiopia; posts that do not fall
within the charter of soc.culture.ethiopia.moderated.

2) Commercial advertisements unrelated to Ethiopia; "spam" articles.

3) "Me too" posts; excessively repetitive posts; posts that do not
contribute any new discussion to an ongoing thread; posts containing
an unreasonable amount of quoted text.

4) Posts containing profanity or excessive rudeness; posts that lack
appropriate civility and tone.  While well-placed heckles are
certainly acceptable, flamewars are not.

5) Excessively ungrammatical posts; posts containing excessive
misspellings; posts exceeding the limit of 75 characters per line.

Moderation is by no means intended to impede freedom of speech, but
merely to help readers make the most of their time by ensuring
conformity to the objectives outlined in the charter.

Individuals who believe a particular moderator has unfairly rejected a
submission can appeal to the entire panel of moderators.  The panel
will reevaluate the submission and make a majority decision as to
whether it will be posted.  In the event that the moderation panel is
evenly split over whether a submission ought to be posted, the
submission shall be posted.

This appeal is final; however, the moderators at any time may suggest
ways in which a submission might be edited so as to be acceptable for
posting.
