I previously voiced (?) a simple straightforward YEA vote for net.sources.amiga.
After reading some of the other comments here, I would like to amend my vote.
		
   Ammendment #1: I strongly agree with those who wish to discourage binary
		  propogation on the net. 

   Ammendment #2: If we are to have source-only postings, then why not have
		  a single news group to handle postings for all 68000 machines.
		  (Re: Robert Viduya's recent posting).

As an after thought, I would like to mention that one difficulty which is bound
to crop up in a generalized net.source post is the use of system dependent 
sub-routines (or macros). Sources which may strong use of amiga's Sprite
graphics are not likely to be easily convertable to the Mac (Or are they? I
am certainly no expert on either machine.).
