Three points: [1] Someone will complain that "net.sources is archived automatically by many sites and they might not want net.sources.mac!" This merely makes those sites' task somewhat less trivial but it is simply a software problem. Not an issue. [2] mod.sources.mac is a good idea but if mod.sources is an example, the turnaround on this is slow and not many people seem to use it to post sources. Would Mac users be any different? [3] What are you going to do when you start getting the "Does anyone have a copy of MacWidgit?" articles in net.sources.mac? Will there be a net.wanted.sources.mac, too? Things to think about. -- Gordon A. Moffett ...!{ihnp4,hplabs,sun}!amdahl!gam "Everything you know is wrong"
