[news.announce.newgroups] Call for discussion: comp.sys.cisco

tli%phakt.usc.edu@usc.edu (Tony Li) (01/11/90)

This is a call for discussion about the creation of comp.sys.cisco, a
newsgroup for discussion about products from cisco systems.

cisco is a leading manufacturer of multiprotocol brouters, gateways
and terminal servers.  cisco products are used in many educational and
commercial organizations, including several regional networks.

A mailing list for this topic already exists (cisco@spot.colorado.edu)
which is seeing a good bit of activity.  Due to the success and
popularity of cisco's products, this is likely to increase.

I propose that comp.sys.cisco be created to handle this traffic.  I
suggest that it be an unmoderated group.

Per USEnet guidelines, discussion will be open for between two weeks
and one month. All articles should be posted to news.groups.
