	Given that the overall volume is not that high, and that
many sites do not receive binary groups, could we hold off on creation
of a binaries group by STRONGLY ENCOURAGING posting of sources instead 
of the binaries?  For one thing, I suspect that sources may compress
to be smaller than the corresponding binaries.  The other is that
the sources are MUCH more useful.
