No group, small or large, should have 'control' over comp.unix. As has been pointed out many 'novices' have posted to comp.unix.\ wizards. Are they to have control over comp.unix because of that while others, judiciously keeping out of comp.unix.wizards because they felt - unqualified to answer the more difficult questions and - didn't bother with the obvious answers to easy questions are to take that? I don't like the idead AT ALL! The comp.unix reorganization was discussed and voted on and passed. Period. And that's what I'll honour here. If anybody starts 'mucking around' then this won't be honoured here. (I have already recompiled news to do newgroup and rmgroup manually and will install that version if any mucking about starts to take place.) If comp.unix.wizards EVER gets re-created by a regular vote, I'll be re- creating it. Until then, it's comp.unix.internals. Please do the reverse aliasing in your head. So long Martin I forgot to mention: flames are doused in /dev/null, so don't bother.
