Australian Business issues
Charter of aus.business
This newsgroup is for discussion of issues affecting owners and intending owners of businesses in Australia. Examples of on-topic discussions include:
- ASIC requirements,
- Changes to government policy, regulation and taxation,
- National business infrastructure,
- How to manage Australian employees, and,
- Any other issue which affects businesses and startups.
Some caveats for online behaviour exist:
- aus.business is a text-only discussion group. If what you have to say absolutely requires HTML, text encoding or binaries, posters should direct their potential readers to a URL which contains these things.
- Advertising is not allowed in the body of messages to this newsgroup (Use the aus.ads.* hierarchy instead if you absolutely must). A standard four line .signature has more than enough room to alert readers to your company and its services.
- Be aware that some participants will consider aus.business more "real world" than others. The onus is on aus.business users to recognise that libel laws exist. Ad hominem attacks are discouraged.
- Crossposting to the more flame-filled newsgroups (eg, aus.politics et al) is also discouraged.
aus.business explicitly welcomes the use of binary message cancelers and anti-spam cancelers which apply a Breidbart Index threshold of 3. Info on how the BI is calculated is in the "Breidbart Index (BI) Definition" document currently at http://www.stopspam.org/usenet/mmf/breidbart.html.
