I agree this is needed.  In light of existing USENET practice, I'd
suggest that the new group be named comp.sys.ibm.pc.programmer --
that would more nearly parallel the existing Macintosh group name.

Followups should include news.groups in the distribution.
This is discussion, not a call for votes.
