No.  If you really want to turn this group into a place where technical
discussions can occur, start a few technical discussions.  It always amuses 
me when people think that a certain class of articles will magicaly start
to appear if they moderate a newsgroup.  Do you really believe that there
masses of people out there with technical multimedia articles who are saying,
"I'm not posting until they stop allowing all that lowbrow stuff."  It might
be different if this group had 100s of messages a day. Then maybe you could
argue that maybe people were not posting because they didn't want their 
articles to be buried in a crowd.  But what do we have here?  Maybe ten or 
so on a busy day.  This group does not have such a high vloume that we need 
to start pruning articles.
