The propagation figures for rec.railroad vs. misc.transport.urban-transit show that the misc group, overall, is better propagated. And there are problems with new second level groups--the new group rec.ponds has horrible propagation. But this really belongs in news.groups. [snip about listserv added to rec.railroad RfD] : Never a serious proposal :-). Good. It doesn't really make much difference to me--I would read it no matter what the name, but I think bit.listserv.railroad would be best. How soon can the new group happen? -- Andrew Toppan --- elmer@wpi.edu --- http://www.wpi.edu/~elmer/ Railroads, Ships and Aircraft Homepage, Tom Clancy FAQ Archive
