I must disagree with Mel on one point -- if someone wants to start a group, he/she shouldn't (in my opinion) submit something to THAT group right away; this probably will cause excess dead groups (from name changes, and also possibly the user will find that no one was interested) which is what we're trying to stop (I am NOT disagreeing with the newsgroup system nor saying that groups for specfifc topics are bad but groups just lying around because someone started them before checking to see if there was any interest pile up) Adam Buchsbaum
