No one name has gotten much support. I'm currently leaning toward one of these two: news.ps-maps (moderated) comp.mail.ps-maps (moderated) The "ps" helps (a little) to show that the format is PostScript. Yes, it could be news.maps.ps, but that's silly -- let's just wait until someone else starts doing a different type of thing. (And being realistic, who but Brian Reid will ever be collecting and manipulating this kind of data anyway?) It was felt that news.lists is for human-readable data.
