Why not use net.lang.lisp?  Traffic is fairly low, and the topis seems
appropriate.

I am starting an xlisp mailing list on Arpanet and have gotten a tremendous
number of requests from usenet'ers.  I think maybe a net.lang.xlisp is in
order.  I'm not a very regular user so I don't know how this would be set up.
I would like to gateway it between info-xlisp on arpanet, in much the way
info-amiga is gatewayed to net.micro.amiga.  Here is a copy of my post on
info-xlisp, to give you a feeling of what would be covered.  I have gotten
over 100 requests to be added in less than a week!

----------
I am planning to start an INFO-XLISP mailing list.  The reasons for this are:

	* To exchange XLISP code and ideas
	* To provide an easy method of reporting bugs 
	* To facilitate the distribution of XLISP revisions (few people
	  are aware that there is an XLISP 1.6 already and 1.7 is near
	  completion)
	* To collect enhancements to XLISP and collect the changes 
	  necessary to port XLISP to new machines

If you are interested in joining the list, please send mail to me at
one of the addresses below.  I will need your name and net address.  I would
also appreciate knowing what machine you use to run XLISP.  I will then keep
you informed about the INFO-XLISP details (such as the address) as they become
final.

Please tell me how I could set up a usenet equivalent.  I think it would
serve a great need.

I've gotten a tremendous response from my posting about INFO-XLISP that I
think a net.lang.xlisp is in oredr too.  This would simply be a USENET
version of my INFO-XLISP list with a two-way gateway (postings to INFO-XLISP
show up on net.lang.xlisp and postings to net.lang.xlisp get sent to those on
INFO-XLISP).  Please send a note to me if you are interested in this so I can
try to have it established.
