   I would like to add my vote for net.auto.tech.  I am the person who
wrote the article about "...Time to leave this group..." in net.auto. 
I must say that I am glad that others feel the same way about the situation
as I do.  By reading net.auto and net.news.group, I get the impression
that the overwhelming majority of the readers want the split to be made.
   As for the name of the group, I think it should be net.auto.tech because
it will (hopefully) be created for those of us who want to read only the
technical articles.  The name net.auto.tech would favor us a little more
by making people think twice about posting to the group.  It adds emphasis
to the fact that the group is for technical discussions *ONLY*.  Hence,
someone would be less likely to post an article about the aesthetic beauty
of his Lamborghini Countach there...
   One question though:  To create a new news group do we just bat the
discussion around this news group for awhile until the net gurus read it
and decide either way, or do we have to mail directly to them?
