			REQUEST FOR DISCUSSION

Why not re-organize 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 bit.listserv newsgroups, and would help Usenet administrators
pick and choose which to carry.
