I think that this would be the optimal solution. With their own wiz.* hierarchy, they'd go away and quit wasting our time, net.bandwith, and disc space with nonsense like the name of the newsgroup would make them violate their license agreement. Then, people who want to talk about device driver problems, kernel bugs, and such can use c.u.internals or c.u.esoterica, whichever ends up after Chips' current CFD/CFV cycle. Posting a newgroup is NOT going to help their case, either. I rmgrouped it here immediately, and will do so every time a non-vote-approved newgroup shows up. -- Gary Heston { uunet!sci34hub!gary } System Mismanager SCI Technology, Inc.
