If what is now "net.columbia" becomes "net.space.<columbia or challenger>"
will the existing gateway that feeds all "net.space" postings into the
ARPA "Space" mailing list also automatically pick up all the traffic in
"net.space.subgroup"? If so, then it would be a good thing to move the
space-shuttle group under the net.space umbrella, as it will maximize
information dissemination. If not, then little, if anything, is gained
by this single consolidation. In this latter case, it should be left
alone until the inevitable massive re-naming and revamping of all
USENET newsgroups.
