	With the growing number of machines that are part of the Internet,
and the fact that such machines have to have their name and node numbers
to be reached on the internet, I am making a proposal that a Internet group
be created.  

comp.internet	General Internet related discussions of interest
comp.internet.addr - simular to comp.mail.maps where a monthly posting of the
most up to date hosts table would be published and changed in Internet address
can be posted throughout the month.

Any and all feedback on this would be greatly appreciated.

Part of the reason I even suggest this is we have had problems in the delay
factor fo a university or organization changing their Internet address and
the time it takes for others to find this out, while mail, news, etc is
spooling up for days even weeks.
