I think mod.projects.software is a good idea, or at least, worth trying (though I don't expect to be involved with it myself). I have sent a Yes vote to Andrew Burt, who proposed it. However, I think it ought to be mod.projects. The usual criterion for new groups applies: we don't need the subgroup until the traffic justifies it. At least one past attempt to create a group and subgroup together, net.astro.expert, has been less than a success. I propose to amend Andrew's proposal by suggesting the creation of mod.projects only. (We'd have to create that anyway; a subgroup has to have a parent.) Since I am proposing only an amendment, please MAIL your remarks on this TO ANDREW, not me. I presume you wouldn't have anything to say unless you were going to mail him a Yes or No anyway; so what I'm trying to do is to keep the voting in one place. (I haven't asked his permission to post this, but he said he was going away now. I hope everybody will think I am being reasonable.)
