Dead SA, if you're reading this then your Usenet software may be misconfigured.
Please consider changing your /usr/lib/news/control.ctl file as follows:

##	NEWGROUP MESSAGES
## honor them all and log in ${LOG}/newgroup.log
newgroup:*:*:doit=newgroup

##	RMGROUP MESSAGES
## drop them all and don't log
rmgroup:*:*:drop

and no other rules for newgroup or rmgroup). This way you'll save a lot of time
and eliminate these annoying little e-mails. Thank you and have a nice day!!!

soc.culture.indian.telugu is a moderated newsgroup which passed its vote for
creation by 276:64 as reported in news.announce.newgroups on 13 Jun 1996.

Group submission address:  scit@icarve2.me.wisc.edu
Moderator contact address: ratnakar@cae.wisc.edu

For your newsgroups file:
soc.culture.indian.telugu	The culture of the Telugu people of India. (Moderated)

The charter, culled from the vote result announcement:

It is proposed that the usenet group soc.culture.indian.telugu be changed
>from  its current status of an unmoderated group to an automoderated group.

The original charter follows:

        Telugu is the twelfth most widely spoken language in the world
[1], the second most widely spoken language in India. It is a
Dravidian language spoken by about 69 million people.  Earliest
written records in Telugu date back to the third century A.D., while
polished written literature dates back to about 1000 A.D.  Andhra is
the Sanskrit name for Telugu, and most of its speakers are in Andhra
Pradesh, a state in the southern part of India. Telugu is one of the four
major languages of the Dravidian family, with its own script common to
all of its several dialects. Telugu culture dates back to the begining of
Christian Era and it has evolved with the inputs from both Sanskritic and
Dravidic culture groups.

        The proposed newsgroup is expected to be a forum for
discussions on topics that are specific to Telugu culture, with no
apparent relevance to persons not interested in Telugu culture and
language. Postings relating to Telugu or Andhra Pradesh but are of
relevance to others are expected to be crossposted to appropriate
newsgroups (eg soc.culture.indian, rec.music.indian.classical).
Likewise, if a topic is not Telugu-specific, it is expected that it
will be posted elsewhere in an appropriate forum. Many postings on the
proposed newsgroup are likely to be in transliterated Telugu, with an
English translation not necessarily accompanying them.

        The following is a partial list of such possible topics.

Arts:
-----
Performing Arts: Kuchipudi dance, its style and framework compared to
Bharatanatyam and other dance forms from other parts of the country,
dance dramas, evolution of Telugu theater, Telugu lyrics in Karnatic
classical music, devotional philosophies of its exponents.

Other Arts: Ballads, `harikatha', `burrakatha', their current
popularity.

Communication Media:
-------------------
Electronic Media: Quality of Telugu TV programs, State autonomy
versus privatization of the TV, relevance of various programs on the
TV, its role in social life, in politics, in government, in adult
education, its influence on common man, its role as a news media. Same
for Radio, with discussion on regional radio stations.

Print Media: News analysis, commentary, editorials, investigative
and yellow journalism in Telugu newspapers, their quality in
comparison with national newspapers in English.

Literary quality and popular literature in periodicals, soft
pornography in weekly magazines, science fiction, educational
magazines, children's magazines, comics.

Visual Media: Films: Various genres, modern trends, comparison with
other Indian or foreign language films, technical quality, dialects in
films, literary quality of songs, obscenity in sight and sound, social
issues in films, film personalities such as directors, actors.

Painting, sculpture, handicrafts, puppet shows and street plays.

Developmental Projects:
----------------------
Literacy improvement, adult education, primary health care,
eradication of social evils like `Jogin' system and bonded labor, NRI
interest in such projects, profiles of social service organizations,
social workers, governmental long-term projects.

History:
-------
Various theories on the history of the Telugu language and people,
life of a common man in various dynasties, current status of native
tribes, British influence on the region, migration patterns.

Literature:
----------
Discussions on classical as well as modern literature may include
major literary movements, various literary forms and their
relationship to the content, diachronic evolution of the relationship
between form and content, influence of world literature and
philosophers, folk literature, children's literature, literature in
various dialects, translations from other languages, poets,
playwrights, novelists, story tellers and such.

Scientific Literature:
---------------------
Teaching science in Telugu, scientific vocabulary in Telugu, reviews
of science books in Telugu, taking science to rural children.

Software:
--------
Good features of a transliteration scheme, various schemes,
typesetting in  LaTeX, what-you-see-is-what-you-get software based on
transliteration, special spell-checking problems in Telugu, optical
character recognition, merits of existing packages, ftp sites for
transliterated texts.

Teaching Telugu:
---------------
Challenges in teaching Telugu to the second generation (born and
settled outside of Andhra Pradesh) - especially that outside of India,
designing textbooks, dictionaries and other learning tools for them.

The above is only a small sample of possible topics. It is hoped that
the proposed newsgroup will generate discussion on many more such topics.

Moderation Policy:

The moderation will be primarily for the purpose of eliminating the
cross-postings. The moderation will be done by auto-moderation tools
(custom-built computer programs), with human intervention kept to the
minimum level required to keep said programs operating satisfactorily.
The tools will be utilized to auto-moderate posts to the forum by
rejecting cross-posts.

Posts will not be checked for their contents !!!

We feel that such restrictions are needed, considering the large
number of irrelevant postings that are flooding SCIT in its current
form. While we believe in freedom of expression, practice it to the
fullest, and encourage it in others, we think the restriction placed
is within reason. It may be noted that *NO* restriction is proposed
on language use, on topics allowed, or content, and that we have
deliberately refrained from human moderation, to eliminate all possible
subjectivity in moderation. Our only aim is to create a newsgroup that
allows the fullest freedom to discuss all issues as specified in the
original charter of SCIT , but removes material that are of no
interest (which is generally the case with crossposts).
