Sounds good to me.  Maybe if we get the administrative trivia out of the
way, the real motives of the "vmsnet.*" group will emerge.  (Surely you
don't expect that they will actually go along with such a reasonable

Okay, so I got out on the wrong side of bed this morning.  Nevertheless,
I expect this idea will be ignored -- it doesn't have the ego appeal of
"our OWN top-level group".
