Suggestion 4: move "net.space" to "net.sci.space" net.eng.space would be better. The space program is a technological engineering effort more than a scientific one, and net.sci.astro covers the sience side. The root group net.eng would also give non-software engineers a home on the net. Suggestion 6: drop "net.columbia" in favor of "net.space" (see #4) Yuk, lots of people will hate this. The shuttle is a distinct part of the space program. It also generates sufficient unique traffic that it continues to deserve its own group. How about net.eng.columbia, so it's grouped with net.eng.space? Len Tower UUCP: {bellcore,ima,ihnp4}!inmet!tower INTERNET: ima!inmet!tower@CCA-UNIX.ARPA
