[gnu.config] Why no gnu.utils?

I have noticed this problem before, and a recent posting to gnu.utils.bug
brings it up again.  Why is there no gnu.util, where the various GNU
utilities could be discussed?  Questions about GNU-specific features,
as well as up-to-date information of who is working on what, seem like 
they need a home.  Perhaps gnu.chess could be incorporated into such a
newsgroup.

We now have a place to keep non-programming issues (gnu.misc.discuss)
out of the way of technical topics.  Why not include a place for user
questions and queries, as well as minor announcements from programmers
supporting the GNU project by supplying software, out of the way of
bug reports?

P.S.  If a single statement can change a program, can a single programmer
change the world?

Cheers,
