This has probably been discussed before ... but how about splitting Minix-L into two lists. One on which the sources are distributed and one which contains all the general chat?

It is confusing to try and figure out which patches to apply and which ones not to. Any volunteers? -- Ben Cox b-cox2@uiuc.edu

Please! I second this. There is too much traffic to keep up with.
How about comp.os.minix.dist which contains _OFFICIAL_ source
distribution? Of course this group should be moderated! (The name can
be changed if .dist is not satisfactory.)

I second this. There is too much traffic to keep up with. How I wish this issue would go away. Discussing it creates traffic too. "Keeping up with" is what the n key is for. I'm for keeping one group for everything and using sensible subject lines. ==Jess Anderson===Academic Computing Center=====Univ.
