Now that alt is here to stay, might I suggest a new newsgroup creation rule:

	(1) Create the group in "alt".
	(2) Demonstrate volume and friendliness.
	(3) Get the *backbone* to vote on admitting it.

This is loosely based on the ANSI X3J11 rules. The last requirement is to
take care of the recent lack of backbone in the backbone.

By the way, what's a "Brahms Gang"?
