I really don't see a need for a WWIV newsgroup

I don't think we need comp.bbs.wwiv nor even alt.bbs.wwiv

Since WWIV already has it's own established network, purely WWIV-related
discussions would best be had ON the WWIV-Based network(s)...

Fine. I wasn't going to create it. I was just pointing out procedures.
Frankly, I hope that Jay Walker is an exception  and not the usual
sort of WWIV sysop.

Having said that, I would be interested in seeing discussions of WWIV
networking, especially regarding Usenet connectivity.
