I am proposing the creation of a separate newsgroup to handle the Australian
Babylon5 news traffic.  Currently it is mostly in aus.sf, with a fair amount
of spill-over into aus.sf.star-trek.

The proposed name is aus.sf.babylon5.

This will reduce the B5 news in the trek group, and allow readers who are
interested in B5 but not other aus.sf shows (eg, TimeTrax, SeaQuest) to see
only what they want.

The group rec.arts.sf.tv.babylon5 is not a substitute as it mostly deals
with U.S. episodes which are one series ahead of us here in Australia, and
contain *major* spoilers.

The group alt.tv.babylon-5 is not a substitute as alt groups do not get high
enough propogation, and are not specifically Australia based.

If there is enough support for this proposal, I will see what is needed to
create the group.


Thanks,
Phil.
