There's been some discussion recently on comp.sys.acorn (and also in
eunet.micro.acorn) about the posting of binaries to those groups. It's looking
like a separate binaries group would be a good idea, and so I propose the
creation of comp.binaries.acorn.

My personal feeling is that the group should be moderated; the moderator would
check that the programs worked, that they had no trojans or viruses, and that
they actually uncompressed properly...

Comments, anyone?
