Message-ID: <21218@pasteur.Berkeley.EDU> Date: 17 Jan 90 19:02:29 GMT Sender: news@pasteur.Berkeley.EDU Lines: 14 Look, someone do it already. Collect some statistics on what the most common non-general posts have been about in the last >2 months, and do a call-for-votes. This discussion is being beaten to death. I'm beginning to think that the most useful subgroup would be comp.graphics.what-to-call-the-new-group. -- Jamie PS: Flames along the lines of "well why don't *you* do it?" will be sheepishly ignored. PPS: Maybe the monthly postings should be upped to weekly status, and should begin with "direct requests for the GIF file format to comp.sys.ibm.pc".
