Why doesn't somebody propose ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I would like to propose, instead, that comp.binaries.ibm.pc become comp.code.msdos. The msdos world has less reason to distinguish between source and executable than the Unix world. Begging the cost-to-post issue, I would be inclined to post my super-neato-utility in a package that included binary for those poor souls without the correct compiler, AND source for those who can make use of it. If this really is a terrible idea (impossible!:-), then as second choice I will propose comp.sources.msdos (and let OS/2 hang!) If this means I've agreed to collect votes for either or both of these groups, someboddy please tell me what it is I have to do. -Bob Montante
