How about: comp.protocols.a-gratuitously-long-name-that-may-or-may-not-adequately-describe-the-group-to-discuss-ppp-and-related-protocols Personally I think that comp.protocols.ppp is succinct and to the point. As Ed pointed out there is currently a lot of discussion in a wide range of groups on ppp. We need to collect it together. If you want to suggest a different group to discuss building internets or WANS or whatever go to it. I suggest it should be seperate from comp.protocols.ppp. -- Stuart Lynne Computer Signal Corporation, Canada ...!van-bc!sl 604-937-7785 604-937-7718(fax) sl@wimsey.bc.ca
