[ Followups to news.groups. ] According to flee@shire.cs.psu.edu (Felix Lee): >>Consider the novice: ... "news.software.c! It must be about C software!" > >This is a presentation problem. The place to fix this is in >newsreader programs. Newsreaders should show the group description, true. But I don't think we should ignore the installed base of "rn" and "vnews" users. But this naming issue is probably beside the point. The real issue is: How should we divide the discussion of Usenet news software? I'd support replacing "news.software.b" with "news.software.transport". -- Chip Salzenberg at ComDev/TCT <chip@tct.uucp>, <uunet!ateng!tct!chip>
