[net.unix-wizards] Need for networking group

netnews@wnuxb.UUCP (Heiby) (03/11/85)

It looks to me as though a *lot* of the traffic on net.unix-wizards is
related to TCP/IP issues and problems.  Is there a better place for this
discussion?  If not, perhaps a net.netwk group with subgroups net.netwk.tcpip
and maybe net.netwk.uucp would make sense.  Others, of course could be added
as warranted (like net.netwk.slan or net.netwk.xns?).  Please *reply* with
your comments and suggestions and I will summarize back here in about two
weeks.  Thanks.

	There is already a net.lan group with much discussion about TCP/IP. 
	However dur to the large amount of traffic on net.unix-wizzards,
	(every one wants to be a wizzard) some thing has to be done. 
	Breaking up net.unix-wizards for networking would be a good start.

	I suggest that a new networking group be for all netowrking
	issues ( i.e TCP/IP X.25 SNA(ugh) ISDN ... )
