Well, I think it's not such a great idea because support for moderated groups is pretty shoddy still with the news software. Posting articles becomes a crap game. Frankly, I like the immediacy and reliability of the give-and-take of what the AIX newsgroup has had so far as an unmoderated group. There must be ways to merge AIX-L with comp.unix.aix without inconveniencing us. -- Steve Dyer dyer@ursa-major.spdcc.com aka {ima,harvard,rayssd,linus,m2c}!spdcc!dyer dyer@arktouros.mit.edu, dyer@hstbme.mit.edu
