I agree that increased discussion and exchange of resources related to
SGML and text mark-up is needed.  I also agree that comp.text.sgml will
help recognition and participation of those with expertise without
excluding discussion of alternative markup.  I therefore support the
creation of comp.text.sgml.  I agree with a previous follow-up that
'document' markup should be discussed and thus comp.doc.markup or
comp.doc.sgml makes some sense also.  At some later point a move to
multi-media doc markup discussion should occur.  Still, I support
creation of comp.text.sgml as a near term move.
