I am calling for discussion re the creation of a newsgroup for discussions
of CD-ROM hardware, software and diskware (or whatever you call the round
things :-) plus info on vendors and prices.  Related issues, like
networking CD-ROM systems and legal issues could also be discussed.

The group would be called alt.cd-rom, with an option to move to comp. some
time in the future (if traffic/intrest makes this plausible), unmoderated.

If anyone has objections, speak out now or be silent forever.
(Followups to news.groups, I hope I haven't messed this up too badly...)
