#
The volume of net.unix and net.unix-wizards is humungous (large)
as it is.  I fear the proposal to combine them would make net.unix
a dreadful newsgroup to scan for particular issues.

To help break up this volume in an orderly way, and
to remove the vaguely titled ``net.unix-wizards'', I propose
replacing net.unix-wizards with net.unix.kernel (including device
drivers, system calls, i/o system and file system esoterica), and
leave net.unix for questions on the ``applications'' (programs)
part of Unix.

Comments?  Criticisms?

What other ways can we break-up the net.unix / net.unix-wizards mass
into meaningfully titled newsgroups?
