Why not just cross post if these other groups need help?  I know that I
am interested (as PROBABLY most other readers of comp.sys.amiga{.tech}
are) in what's up with amiga peripherals, so then we just end up with
another news group to search through while killing all the other irrelevant

As far as I can tell the only real valid motivation for creating a new

not of interest to all/most of the members of that group.  And if the
people on comp.periphs are bored, they can just come join us here! :-)
