Ech!  Let us not be so bass-ackwards as to do that!
Why must be unify these software groups?  That would only lead to
confusion ("Are you talking about news B or C or nntp?").  Leave them
alone, and by all means lets have a news.software.c pretty soon.

Let's use the structure of newsgroup names to help us, not hinder us.
