Come now.  I don't get GNU, or biz, or bionet or more than a couple of
groups of Alt.  Nor am I at all interested in getting their own versions
of news.groups, which if not moderated, will be similar to the main
news.groups group -- guess why people wanted news.announce.groups in news.*?

But I am interested in finding out what new groups get created in these
hierarchies, so that I can decide if I want to get them fed to me.  It
would be nice to just get announcements, with a short 5 line description for
each gorup, and not have to check for changes in a big list of one line
descriptions of everything.   I think that so long as it's moderated, even
my enemies don't have to worry about it being abused by evil money grubbing
scum such as myself.

Gasp.  Here I am agreeing with Lear@bio.net!   :-)
