I propose that the newsgroup "comp.emacs" be renamed to "comp.editors.emacs".

The categorization of Emacs as a text editor by placing it under
"comp.editors" seems reasonable and proper, much more so than
placing it under "comp" alone.  Although Emacs has been extended
to do many things seemingly tangential to editing, its central
function is still text editing and it should be classified as such.
