This failed the last time a CFV was posted. I'd like to try again.
In fact, I think there should be a wholesale reorg, like this:

comp.editors				General discussion about editor
					design & use
comp.editors.announce [mod]		Announcements about new editor
					revisions, modifications, packages,
					etc. Traffic should be low enough
					to cover all subgroups.

comp.editors.teco			:-)
comp.editors.vi				Discussion about the Unix VI editor
comp.editors.tpu			Already handled by the VMS group?
comp.editors.wordstar

comp.editors.emacs.misc			Miscellaneous discussion not
					appropriate for a more focused group,
					or for minor emacs variants e.g.
					Freemacs, JOVE, uemacs.
comp.editors.emacs.gnu			Discussion about GNU Emacs & variants
comp.editors.emacs.xemacs		Discussion about XEmacs & variants
comp.editors.emacs.unipress		Discussion about Unipress Emacs
