I sure would like to see activity on net.math.symbolic.  At the very
least, I'd like to see it kept around for a little while longer.
Judging a serious newsgroup like this based upon its May-Aug traffic is
somewhat invalid since this is the time of low academic activity.

I have been the beneficiary of net.math.symbolic on more than one
occasion.  It is my principal means of communication with other uses of
Macsyma, Maple, and other systems.  Any system that can support
net.jokes on the basis of its traffic volume should be able to tolerate
something like net.math.symbolic until this relatively new field catches
on a little more.

Cheers,

Brint
