It just dawned on me, after reading Chip Salzenberg's statement about where
the real Usenet power lies (i.e. with the owners and administrators of the
machines that Usenet flows to/through), that if there REALLY are many people
who want to see a catchall SCO newsgroup (or groups), that there should
be plenty of people willing to take the time to set up thier machines to
accept a separate "sco" hierarchy.

The creation of a separate heirarchy, and its success, would definitely
prove to us doubters that a sco-specific group has merits.

Personally, as the one with the power on "tiamat" (and I feed several other
sites these days), I wouldn't pick up an SCO heirarchy.  I know the people
who really know Unix, Xenix, or whatever we call it (I wonder if Bo knows
Unix? :-), and its applications, are going to be posting in other places.
