I've been seeing more and more messages on this group so I though I'd say something. My understanding was that when we split comp.sys.mac into all the other subgroups that comp.sys.mac would go away. I think that at many sites it has. Some sites, like ours, probably haven't deleted it from the list of active groups (and I've kept it on my subscribe list out of laziness). After the split the traffic on this group dropped off to almost nil (you may have been wondering why this group lost so much activity). Now that I'm seeing more activity I thought I'd check to see if people were aware that this group, while still alive, probably isn't read by as near as many people as the other Mac groups.

It is not on Spaf's list of active newsgroups (according to news.lists, 13124@medusa.cs.purdue.edu) but it still exists at many sites (including this one). I wonder if someone forgot to rmgroup it? --GaryM -- Gary Morris Internet: gmorris@nasamail.nasa.gov Lockheed, Houston, Texas UUCP: lobster!lescsse!gamorris N5QWC/W5RRR Phone: +1 713 283 5195
