This group seems to just be an echo of the problems and solutions
(often just crossposts) as the main comp.os.linux.* groups.

There ARE Australia-SPECIFIC Linux issues, such as CD-ROM retailers,
FTP sites, net access, and user-groups.  But they get lost in the noise.

I cannot off-hand think of any posting that would be appropriate to both
aus.computers.linux and comp.os.linux.misc, for example.

Are there tens of thousands of Australian users who do not have access
to the main comp.os.linux.* groups?  If so, I can understand.
