It really seems like the Dr. Who newsgroup should be a subgroup 
of net.sf-lovers.  Yes, I know, the name would be too long.  SO, 
how about changing the name of net.sf-lovers?  Maybe to net.sf.
Yes, I'm aware that it's called sf-lovers on ARPA, and that for 
nostalgic reasons people may want to keep that name.  However,
not everyone is running 2.10 software AND it would be nice to
be able to have subgroups for science fiction discussions.

Has any group ever changed its name before?
How do people feel about it?

As I see it, it's practicality vs. justifiable sentimentality.
Both are valid.  Just wanted to present this as an option.
Think about this before you go off and create a net.whonix.
