[comp.sys.next] to Split or not to split

pfkeb@ebnextk.SLAC.Stanford.EDU (Paul Kunz) (02/23/91)

  I  just looked at the distribution of the most active  newsgroups.
comp.sys.next was not listed.  So I suggest that we not split this group
until we get on the top 25 list.   If we reach it (and reach it  by not
deliberately flooding this group) that would show the world the importance
of NeXT.   On the other hand, NeXT would also seem important if we had
lots of subgroups, but not if each of the subgroups contained  only 
a few messages each.
  Of course, interest in NeXT may never reach the level of alt.sex.pictures,
or of groups discussing the situation in the middle east.   But I would
find it interesting to see comp.sys.next amongst the top 25, even at 
the bottom.
