No there hasn't and no they don't, but let's get on to the fun stuff.

Actually, `trouble', `flame', `pbi', `future', `manual', `history',
`culture', and `misc' would be better, but let's get on to the fun stuff.

Well, just because your interest in the subject isn't as high as the
others that are sticking with unix.wizards is hardly reason to muck
with their group (since you unsubscribed, it ain't yours no more), but
let's get on to the fun stuff.

I Agree That Net.Wizards Should Be Moderated.  However, it doesn't
need a moderator.  Instead it should suffice that people can't post to
net.wizards until they can figure out a way to get around the
moderation restriction.  Of course, this isn't much of a limit now,
but Henry Spencer assures me C-news will be more challenging :-)

Probably.  Would it be better if we left it a ``full stone''?
