Yes, thanks for pointing this out.

I just wonder how many news admins actually visit can.config. I would
not mind at all being a guinea pig to try starting a new can.* group :-)

I would be happy to post a proposed charter here if you are game. 
However, since my proposal in ott.config is bogged down because 
everyone in that group seems to think crossposting should be
disallowed, I must warn you right outfront that I am looking for 
a group with no crossposting limitations (beyond what is normally 
accepted in usenet such as 5-7 group limit).
