Washington, Computer Sci Lines: 14 After reading the recent messages about getting rid of net.general, I think I would vote for KEEPING net.general but changing its charter. The recent argument that the name implies it is for general purpose discussions is persuasive. Change the charter so that it is used for that purpose and also change the references to its importance (about how everyone needs to read it) to refer to net.announce instead. An alternative would be to remove net.misc! --Rick ...decvax!uw-beaver!uw-june!furuta (uucp) ...ihnp4!uw-beaver!uw-june!furuta or Furuta@Washington (ARPAnet)
