For point of reference, it's usual to put new newsgroups into an existing
place in the hierarchy.  Reasonable groups might be comp.windows.andrew
(andrew tool kit) & comp.protocols.afs (andrew file system, by analogy
with comp.protocols.nfs).

My inclination would be to spout the usual "start a mailing list first"
routine, especially if there isn't one yet.
