			REQUEST FOR DISCUSSION

Have you considered re-organizing the bit.listserv domain into topical
sub-domains?  How about dropping the listserv part and having instead

	bit.bio.*
	bit.edu.*
	bit.med.*
	bit.music.*
	bit.text.*
	...

There are so many bit.listserv groups now that I think this would be
a very good thing.  It would help people find their way among the now
200-odd lists (at my site) that have bit.listserv gates, and would help
"mainstream" Usenet administrators pick and choose which to carry.
