I think there is some confusion about net.announce being a
moderated group because it should be called mod.announce.

I vote to nuke net.general and net.followup.
Then change the name of net.announce to mod.announce.
Since Mark is the only person who can post to net.announce,
this should not cause any of the typical problems of people
posting to the old group.

To answer some other concerns --
mod.announce could not become a trashcan (unless Mark
goes crazy).
mod.announce would become better used once net.general goes
away.

Oh, and is there any way to change the software so any
postings to net.general are either disallowed or mailed
to Mark, or something like that?
