In regular universities, you teach general operating systems concepts. Linux might be used as a vehicle for teaching those concepts, but the concepts will be applicable to VMS, 4.3 BSD, Multics, etc. There already exists a Linux group (comp.os.linux & comp.os.linux.announce). This seems to me to be unecessary duplication. A group called alt.uu.comp.os, dedicated to Q&A about general operating systems theory would be more appropriate. Jeff Ollie jollie@herky.cs.uiowa.edu
