Miya) Organization: NASA Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, CA Lines: 12 Dave Sill proposes a comp.benchmark. This might be a good idea, but in my opinion, only if the group is moderated. It would serve no other purpose than existing groups if not otherwise. There is a performance mailing list and it's only use to date has been to call for papers or announce TRs. It should be more than a platform for people to announce what they have. Dave should be or find a willing moderator, but as a LAST resort, I'd do it. Comments about iron handed moderation aside.... 8^) --e. nobuo miya, NASA Ames Research Center, eugene@orville.nas.nasa.gov {uunet,mailrus,other gateways}!ames!eugene
