I agree that discussions of the proposed split are getting out of hand. However, I have questions here, not opinions. If there is net.music.classical & net.music.rock (AND net.music), what will get posted where? If I send an article to .classical, will it also get posted in net.music?? Is that an automatic catch-all? I'm confused as to whether there will be some overlap or whether the groups will be exclusive. If they're exclusive, I'm against the split. If net.music will catch everything, and the specialized sub-groups will get only articles directly sent to them, then fine - split away. It would seem that both the specialists and the eclectics will be happy. Is this how it WOULD be? Please, only USENET guru's reply. ,Karl ...decvax!decwrl!rhea!star!malik
