This will bring it in line with other .programmer groups including comp.sys.mac.p, comp.unix.p, etc. | rmgroup c.s.a and create comp.sys.amiga.misc Thoroughly agreed upon. Keeping comp.sys.amiga around is pointless. | comp.sys.amiga.applications Good group. I'd prefer .apps, as I think this is clear enough, but it's another group that's definitively needed under any name. | comp.sys.amiga.trade [or .swap or .sale] That's what misc.forsale.computers is for. If necessary, go with misc.forsale.computers.amiga, but I don't think this is important at this point. | comp.sys.amiga.multimedia Putting audio, video, and graphics discussions in here is a good idea for now, until the time when separate .audio, .video, and .graphics groups are needed. | comp.sys.amiga.announce [moderated] | comp.sys.amiga.review [moderated] Do we have moderators for these groups? | comp.unix.amiga [ after it is released ;-)] Agreed. Keep the Unix discussions in the Unix hierarchy. Talk about Amiga Unix will more closely match the discussions there than in the c.s.a hierarchy. We also *desperately* need a .futures group.
