New Group Created - ALT.BINARIES.TV.IRISH

[Eric the Half a Bee]

FYI: There is now a new Usenet group specifically for Irish TV
shows, the rather aptly named ALT.BINARIES.TV.IRISH.

Currently, it is fully active on Usenetserver and in the process of
being added on Easynews. Can I politely suggest that if anyone else
out these is interested, they should contact their own Usenet provider
and request that it be added to their own servers. This should
increase support of the group and increase propagation.

Enjoy!


CHARTER: alt.binaries.tv.irish

The objective of this message is to create a new group for the posting
of Irish television programmes.

Usenet postings to generic TV groups are dominated by the high density
of US television material and Ireland lacks a location where posts can
reflect its individual culture.

The group will cater for TV programmes with an Irish origin. All
programmes must be produced either in Eire or Northern Ireland,
exclusively for one of those states or be a co-production in
conjunction with a local television company i.e. RTE or BBC Northern
Ireland. Both English and Gaelic language programmes will be on topic.

Programmes not meeting the above limitations i.e. shows aimed at the
Irish diaspora in America or those simply starring Irish actors will
be deemed off-topic.

I have a question about the charter. Would comedy as well as drama be on
topic? I know there are some irish panel shows popping up around several
torrent sites. Would these be better suited to a.b.m.comedy.british or are
they included in on topic for this group? I suppose this could also apply to
a.b.tv.canadian (I ask because this, a.b.british.drama, newsgroup is drama
only)

The group ALT.BINARIES.TV.IRISH is for (a) TV that is (b) Irish,
whereas a.b.m.comedy.british would presumably not be suitable for the
Irish comedy shows you refer to.

No restrictions would apply to the type of show in this new group, so
if you wan't to upload that groundbreaking re-imagining of It's a
Knockout with Nuns vs Priests, go for it ;-)

"The main locations are Kilfenora, Ennistymon (especially recognisable
in TM) and Kilnaboy in Co.Clare. The Parochial House is McCormack's at
Glenquin, on the Boston road from Kilnaboy. The island itself is
Inisheer."

Therefore it is Irish & on topic.
