In article <30usgb$n3q@bach.seattleu.edu>, zoltan@bach.seattleu.edu (Zoltan Abraham) says:
>-- What is the procedure for splitting a group which already exists?

I don't know what you mean. All bit.* newsgroups (except bit.admin and
bit.general) are gatewayed to mailing lists. Are you splitting a mailing
list?

>-- What is the procedure for making an already existing un-moderated list
>into a moderated one?

The list owner also controls the newsgroup. If they want to change an
unmoderated newsgroup into a moderated they should send me e-mail and
I will add the moderator address to the monthly post of moderators, and
send out a newgroup control message for the group changing it to 
moderated.

>-- Are there any FAQ's or other files which outline the necessary
>procedures for changing bit.* newsgroups similar to the files that

Not for changing -- only for establishing.
