net.text.* seems to be the best way to go for a text-processor newsgroup, as Mark Horton suggested (and did). I think that ditroff (sorry, I somehow like this better than titroff, but maybe we should use Ma Bell's name) should be a separate subgroup, UNLESS people will be diligent about giving USEFUL KEYWORDS IN THE TITLE. To start things off -- any thoughts about how a Versatec driver should be implemented? My thoughts were to put troff output into /usr/spool/vpd, and implement the driver as a vpf-like filter for the vpd daemon. Ma Bell may call it titroff, but it's obvious that we're going to end up a long way from the do-it-yourself kit she provided.
