Lines: 17 Why not do it slowly, using the present system. There is little need to screw things up further with new software. 1). decide on the new structure, and what goes where. 2). send out the group creations. 3). send out notices in the groups affected, and in "announce", or whatever as to what's going on. 4). wait, say, a month for trafic to stop in the old versions of the groups. 5). send out the rmgroups. This need not be done all at once. Stephen Uitti (Purdue physics site manager) UUCP: pur-ee!Physics:suitti, purdue!Physics:suitti INTERNET: suitti @ pur-phy.UUCP
