You are receiving this announcement because I have reason to believe that you might be interested in the following new mailing list. I'm very sorry that I can't send this mail out individually with a personal note, but I have about 50 names on my mailing list for this announcement. If you redistribute this message, please include the Japanese version, as you never know where your version of the announcement may end up. Yours in networking, Bruce Hahne Current address: bruce () jise isl melco co jp Permanent address: hahne () acm org ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Electronic Frontiers Japan mailing list Background and guidelines Mar. 28, 1994 Electronic communication has become an integral part of the lives of people in all corners of the globe. Japan, no exception, is slowly but surely expanding into the electronic frontier, grappling with a myriad of issues such as who will establish and maintain new communications systems, who will control these systems, the level of government regulation to apply, and the rights of individuals as we develop a ubiquitous information infrastructure. To date, the answers to many of these questions have been supplied, not necessarily in the public's best interests, by government agencies and large telecommunications corporations. There has been both a lack of dialogue among those concerned about connectivity issues in Japan as well as a lack of information about available electronic communication services, the political landscape, important public policy decisions, and the law. The Electronic Frontiers Japan mailing list has been formed to provide a public forum for such dialogue. The list's name intentionally anticipates the possibility of forming an organization proper, allied in spirit with similar organizations around the world including the Electronic Frontier Foundation (U.S.), Electronic Frontiers Canada, and Electronic Frontiers Australia. 1. POTENTIAL TOPICS The list is unmoderated and any topics which subscribers feel are relevant to the list are welcome. We anticipate that topics may include, but not be limited to: - The role of government agencies (MITI, MPT, etc.) and communications service providers (NTT, IIKK, AT&T Jens, IIJ, JCIX, NCC, and more) in the formation of Japan's communications policy. - Effective lobbying methods and sources of publicity for impacting Japan's expansion into the electronic frontier. - Freedom and privacy issues as seen in the context of electronic communications, and how Japanese culture may differ from western culture in its approach to these topics. - Electronic Frontiers Japan, the organization: is there general support for such an entity, and if so how should it be structured, funded, and directed? - The cultural and social issues involved in linking to international networks. In particular, issues in linking to the Internet, which is arguably strongly imprinted with western cultural values and within which English has to date been the dominant language. - On-line databases and other resources for research on Japan's networks. - How individuals in Japan can connect to the Internet and other networks (Fido systems, non-Fido BBSes, etc.), and information for system administrators and BBS operators on how to get connected. - Contact and pricing information for Internet service providers, ranging from companies providing high-speed leased line services to sites offering dial-in services for individuals. However, blatant advertising is discouraged. - Subnetworks and links in Japan (WIDE, JUNET, BITNET, etc), as well as technical standards (TCP/IP vs. OSI). - Usenet news, gopher, ftp, telnet, WWW, and similar network-based services in Japan. - Reposts of public information from other sources, i.e. Usenet, Niftyserve, etc. Responsibility for adhering to copyright restrictions rests with the poster. 2. LANGUAGE Mail to the list may be in English, Japanese, or both. We hope to see participation from a wide variety of interest groups and from both Japanese and non-Japanese. If you are posting in English, please be aware that your post will be read by non-native speakers of English. If you are posting in Japanese, please be aware that many sites outside of Japan are not running Japanese terminal programs. In other words, if you post in Japanese we anticipate that not all subscribers will have the technological means to read your message. Software for displaying JIS-encoded text is available for a wide variety of machines at numerous ftp sites. Please try to refrain from posting queries on this topic to the list; instead, please obtain a copy of the sci.lang.japan FAQ from Usenet or request one from Bruce Hahne, hahne () acm org. 3.
