As a very serious question--why isn't there a comp.vi group?  I mean, there's
a comp.emacs, and there seems to be enough traffic so support a group just for
vi (I could turn that into some sort of comment about how impenetrable it is,
but I'm not that kind of guy...:-).

I just ask because it seems to be a logical move, and it's be nice if this
could be sort of steered toward some of the more "obscure" editors (me2, mined,
joe, the ones distributed in source that no doubt take some intestinal
fortitude to set up) and general discussions on editing (stuff like this
'sam paper' thread that I seem to have missed the beginning of).

Just to emphasize it once more, this *isn't* any sort of spark for an
rwar.  Just a question.
