check on the proper procedure for creating newsgroups, someone who called for
a PR1MOS newsgroup got burnt badly for just calling for votes in comp.sys.misc
(though i doubt the same will happen here).

i would like to see a pcb newsgroup because i am starting a project in wirewrap
which will eventually lead to a printed board microcomputer (i have high hopes
for it but i won't bore you with them). since i will be designing the layout
of the pcb in step with the schematic and wire-wrap test circuits, it would be
great to have a group to swap information with. (things like power-supply
despiking, terminating resistors, rf filtering, "parasitic board capacitance",
etc.)

would anyone else subscribe to comp.pcb (or whatever?)
