Circulaire CNEGU - Projet - Series 1 - 1986 09

Magazine Overview

This document is a project proposal for a new circular to be established by the CNEGU (Centre National d'Études sur la Civilisation Extraterrestre), titled 'PROJET CIRCULAIRE CNEGU'. Dated September 24, 1986, it was sent by CNEGU CIGU to CNEGU. The proposal aims to improve internal communication and information sharing within the organization.

Objectives (BUTS)

The circular's objectives are multi-faceted:

• Create a mini liaison organ and practical work tool: To enable faster information circulation than infrequent meetings (averaging every four months).
• Facilitate announcements: Allow groups or individuals to post announcements to advance their work more rapidly.
• Disseminate brief information: Share short pieces of information that might not warrant a full chapter in existing publications.
• Ensure universal knowledge: Prevent information from being forgotten by its holder and avoid the restricted diffusion often seen in individual discussions.
• Provide practical information: Offer synthesized practical information that members can use to deepen their understanding on demand.
• External communication: Disseminate information about ongoing activities within CNEGU and its participants to the outside.

Format (FORME)

The proposed format involves one or more A4 sheets with a distinctive header and numbering, produced by simple photocopy. Information will be presented sequentially without a strict order, chapter, or theme, with the layout managed by the editor. Contributions can be typed, handwritten, or produced by word processing, depending on available resources and urgency. Only the header, once agreed upon, will be rigid. Information must be synthesized to limit the number of pages and stay within standard letter postage rates.

Implementation (MISE EN OEUVRE)

The editor will receive information continuously via mail, phone, or typed articles. Monthly, the editor will compile and publish all received information, with a single combined issue planned for July/August. Diffusion will be by mail to individuals or groups who voluntarily subscribe. Subscribers commit to an annual flat fee, paid in advance, to cover postal costs (estimated at 25 FF per year).

Launch (LANCEMENT)

François DIOLEZ proposes to edit this circular as an experiment for one year. A sample 'n° 0' is presented as an annex. The project requires approval during the CNEGU session in Luxembourg in October 1986. Interested groups or individuals must complete the attached form and send 25 FF (by check or cash) to François DIOLEZ. Circular n° 1 is scheduled for release in November 1986. Reproduction of the circular is encouraged.

Subscribers can request the list of recipients from the editor at any time. Feedback on the content, format, and presentation is welcomed.

A form is provided for interested parties to fill out and send to François DIOLEZ at 1 rue Ambroise Croizat, 94800 VILLEJUIF.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The document strongly emphasizes the importance of open communication, efficient information sharing, and collaborative effort within the CNEGU. The editorial stance is one of proactive organization and community building, aiming to bridge gaps in knowledge and activity dissemination among members. The project is presented as a practical, experimental initiative to improve the functioning of the organization, with a clear call for member participation and feedback.
