Summary: Different types of question should be posted to .questions and .wizards

ROUTINE COMPLAINT
-----------------
As suggested by their titles, the comp.unix.questions and comp.unix.wizards
newsgroups are intended to handle different types of question.  Please can
contributors stop cross-posting to both.  It's not necessary because most
people read both (or neither),  so your simple question will be seen and
perhaps answered by the wizards even if you only post to .questions.

As a rough guideline, may I suggest that questions about the shell commands
(e.g "PS1 and current directory", etc.) and routine stuff about system calls
go to .questions,  and that .wizards be reserved for deeper enquiries about
the kernel internals?
