As much as I hate to be a whiner, I feel compelled to do it anyway.
a) There has been no discussion period on this.
b) The call should have been crossposted to news.groups
Now that that's out of the way:
I see a need for this group and support it but would like to see some
discussion about the naming first. I think it might be a good idea to
use comp.mail.ua.mush instead of comp.mail.mush, this implies a change
of name for comp.mail.elm and comp.mail.mh as well so the effort
required might not be worth any benefit we'd get from cleaning up the
namespace a little.
comments?
