Apparently here we have a need for a new newsgroup mebbe?
net.micro.os9 or whatever?
I believe that the fundamental conditions are there,

1. There is a substantial amount of traffic concerning os9 in
micro.6809 and micro.68k and even in micro.amiga etc.

2. Apparently, some people are upset that we are discussing the
os that allows us to run progs from PDP-11's, VAXes, CRAY-2's
etc. on our "toy" computers WITHOUT MODIFICATION! within "THEIR"
newsgroups. This would seem to establish the "need" for such a
newsgroup.

However, with all the noise in news.group lately about .bizzare
and .internat, I am reluctant to create more noise in that
group. I am not totally cognizant of the procedures used to
start a vote, and so I will mail a copy of this to spaf@gatech
and see if he thinks it might be worthwhile. Meanwhile I'll hide
behind my flame-retardant force field.
