(This is a posting which I also directed to news.groups.  For some
reason I managed not to get it in these groups the first time.)

  Is there a group out there which deals with user interfaces: design,
research, general ideas, etc.?  I couldn't find one; most of the
discussion seems to go through comp.windows.misc, comp.sys.mac,
comp.sys.next, and similar groups.
  What do people think of the idea of creating a group called, say,
something like "comp.user-interfaces" (well, that's kind of long, but
you get the idea)?  Is there enough traffic to warrant it?  There
seems to have been quite a bit in the past, at least judging from what
I've seen....
  Thoughts?  Criticisms?  Suggestions?  (This is *NOT* a call for
votes, we're nowhere near that stage yet!)
