This is a good idea; however, I don't like the name. Un*x systems are not the only platform on which BBS's are built. I suggest that the group should be named "comp.bbs". If subsequent traffic warrants a group split, _then_ we can create "comp.bbs.unix". Let's discuss this a little more before we vote. -- Chip Salzenberg "chip@ateng.UU.NET" or "codas!ateng!chip" A T Engineering My employer may or may not agree with me.
