Since there doesn't seem to be anyone particularly responsible for
keeping track of groups in the Canada distribution, I thought I'd
send this out.  Following is the list of groups that appear to exist
under "can" at the moment, and my definitions for them.

can.general		Articles of general interest to all Canadian sites
can.ai		*	Artificial intelligence discussions.
can.ai.cscsi	*	I have no idea what this is
can.followup	*	Followups to articles in "can" newsgroups
can.jobs		Job announcements, requests, etc.
can.map		*	Canadian net maps
can.politics		Canadian politics

I think that the 4 groups marked * should be considered as candidates
for elimination.  In the case of can.ai there is a corresponding "net" group,
and the subject is such that a reader isn't likely to want to segregate
incoming articles that are from "can" and that are from "net".  If you
want to restrict distribution of an outgoing article, Distribution: works now.
Can.ai.cscsi and can.map don't seem to have any traffic (actually I don't
think can.ai does either); and can.map also seems to be unnecessary with
the new mod.map groups.  Finally, can.followup also has very little traffic
and doesn't seem necessary in the first place.

So let's dump these 4 groups.
