Summary: 

I strongly object to the creation of net.nlang.spanish AS SPECIFIED.
If it is to discuss the Spanish language and you can show sufficient
interest, fine.  But not to discuss cuisine (net.cooks), travel (net.travel),
etc. etc.  Some large portion (?1/5?) of the world's people speak Spanish;
all areas of interest involving them is MUCH too large for one newsgroup;
and all we'll get out of it is massive cross-postings to existing groups.
Where do you post a recipe for guacamole?  You post it to net.nlang.spanish
AND to net.cooks, of course.

net.nlang.spanish ONLY for Spanish language and ONLY if sufficient interest,
please!!
