Hypercard.  So far, the best description for it that I have seen is 
'Software Erector Set'.  It is a new class of product.  It is also not
the only one of its kind.  Now, there is SuperCard and Plus as well.
From what I have heard, Plus is also available to the DOS market.  So
it is really no longer a Mac Specific concept.  

I think what is needed is a group that is outside of the mac tree.  In
stead of c.s.m.hypercard, et al, I think that it should be moved to
either:

	comp.os.hypercard

or

	comp.sys.hypercard

possibly changing the 'hypercard' to something that is not product
specific.  ( .erector perhaps?)

anyway, that's my $0.02.
