[net.news.group] Can I suggest a new newsgroup?

Is anyone interested in an ARPANET/USENET gateway of the new ARPANET
INFO-MAC mailing list into, for instance, net.micro.mac?  Enough traffic
already exists (and then some) in INFO-MAC.  Gatewaying into net.micro.apple
is probably not appropriate.

If there is interest, is there a host willing to act as the gateway?

I would enjoy reading more stuff about the MAC.  If there
is a way of getting the new ARPANET INFO-MAC mailing list
into USENET then I think net.micro.mac should be created.

I also am interested in both a gateway to the Arpanet Macintosh bulletin
board and a new newsgroup for the Micro 32 machines.  I have less than
epsilon interest in old and clunky 6500 based micros, but quite a bit in the
Mac and the Lisa.

How about net.micro.apple.mac?

I vote for a separate group for Mac and Lisa.  They have next to nothing
in common with the Apple N series.

net.micro.lisa might be more appropriate, since both Mac and Lisa are
Lisa Technology machines.  net.micro.lisa is inclusive of both the
Mac and the Lisa, but net.micro.mac doesn't appear to be inclusive
of Lisa.  On the other hand... I couldn't care less.

I also vote for the ARPA gateway thereof.
