Following the call for comment on a new database/data management
newsgroup a week or so ago, Timos Sellis (timos@ucbingres) has
received over 30 affirmatives and probably more on the way.
I haven't seen any negative comment on it either, and it certainly
makes at least as much sense as net.ai and net.math.

Therefore, I will be creating the group very soon.  This article
is to request comment on the name -- "net.db".  Are there any
objections?  Suggestions for a better, more describtive name,
other than resorting to something like "net.database"?  Or
is "net.database" a better choice?  Please *MAIL* your responses
to me.

Thanks.
