[Crossposted to lugnet.robotics & lugnet.announce; followups set to
lugnet.robotics & lugnet.robotics.rcx]

All right -- better late than never...  A new group lugnet.robotics.rcx has
been created, and is there now for anyone wants to jump in and use it.

This new group is a missing link in the newsgroup hierarchy -- it sits
below the robotics group and above the LegOS, NQC, and pbFORTH groups,
using a previously unused (reserved) spot in the newsgroup hierarchy.

Here is the full context:

   lugnet.robotics  (group and hierarchy):
      Building, creating, and developing with added technologies: the
      LEGO® MINDSTORMS™ RIS, other programmable bricks, vision systems,
      bar-code readers, radio controlled units, research sites, microcode/
      embedded programming, etc.

-> lugnet.robotics.rcx  (group and hierarchy):
      Alternative firmware for RCX programmable brick from LEGO®
      MINDSTORMS™ RIS: in-depth technical discussions, collaboration,
      planning, architecture, analysis, etc.

   lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos  (group):
      Focused discussion group for legOS, an unofficial replacement
      firmware package for the LEGO® MINDSTORMS™ RIS: in-depth technical
      discussions, collaboration, planning, architecture, analysis,
      release schedules, problem reports, success stories, etc.

   lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc  (group):
      Focused discussion group for NQC ("Not Quite C"), an unofficial
      language and compiler for programming the LEGO® MINDSTORMS™ RIS:
      in-depth technical discussions, collaboration, planning,
      architecture, analysis, release schedules, problem reports, success
      stories, etc.

   lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth  (group):
      Focused discussion group for pbFORTH, an unofficial replacement
      firmware package for the LEGO® MINDSTORMS™ RIS: in-depth technical
      discussions, collaboration, planning, architecture, analysis,
      release schedules, problem reports, success stories, etc.

(Note that it is perfectly OK to crosspost between the various groups,
as appropriate.)

  Request for new list
 
I request that the discussions of alternate firmware implementation details go into their own newsgroup now. Discussions about features can be crossposted to both lists. There were several requests recently to create a new group for newbies to (...) (26 years ago, 7-May-99, to lugnet.robotics)
