Marc,
 
	I agree wholeheartedly!  As an avid VME user and abuser :-) I am very
much interested in discussing the happenings of the VMEbus.  I have been
actively involved with VMEbus for 3 years now.  Frankly, I am rather surprised
that USENET has had no one volunteer to set up a new newsgroup.  I think the
VMEbus has come into its own as a high-speed supermicro bus. If anyone else is
interested in the VMEbus please respond to Marc and myself.

Mark
