There seems to be some confusion as to the purpose of this group. From the
usual comp.sys.mac.announce posting titled:  About Macintosh Usenet Groups

>comp.sys.mac.comm	Discussion of Macintosh communications

>If it's an application (and doesn't have another group in which it fits,

Keeping all this in mind, can we improve the S/N in this group?
