At a meeting of Usenet admins during USENIX, it was decided to start
the renaming of the mod.* groups.  This means mod.amiga.sources will
become a comp group, but will still be moderated.  It also means
that mod.amiga and comp.sys.amiga will be merged into comp.sys.amiga,
and will be moderated.

I do not know the timetable for the changeover, but expect to see it
sometime soon.  Some groups may convert faster than others (I expect
the amiga, mac, and sources groups to put up a fight).  Furthermore, any
discussion of the change should occur in news.groups, NOT comp.sys.amiga,
so followups should go there.
