Here's a good strategy for creating new groups.  Try to identify some topic
that is intensely interesting to the people who contribute to it, yet
uninteresting to many others.  Split that topic out as a new group.

Personally, though I agree that c.s.a gets a lot of traffic, I don't see
any topic that I would categorically skip.  I don't read c.s.a.hardware,
though, or c.s.a.games.  Those subgroups worked good for me.
