Nope. We just underestimated the stupidity of MS-DOS users.

I think it's time for a grand reorganization, here's my proposal:

> comp.windows.garnet	The Garnet user interface development environment.
	comp.gui.garnet
> comp.windows.interviews	The InterViews object-oriented windowing system.
	comp.gui.interviews
> comp.windows.misc	Various issues about windowing systems.
	comp.gui.misc
> comp.windows.ms		Window systems under MS/DOS. [Obsolete]
	BOOM
> comp.windows.ms.programmer	Writing apps for MS Windows. [Obsolete]
	BOOM
> comp.windows.news	Sun Microsystems' NeWS window system.
	comp.gui.news
> comp.windows.open-look	Discussion about the Open Look GUI.
	comp.gui.open-look
> comp.windows.x		Discussion about the X Window System.
	comp.x.misc		/* X is not a GUI, remember :-> */
> comp.windows.x.announce	X Consortium announcements. (Moderated)
	comp.x.announce
> comp.windows.x.apps	Getting and using, not programming, applications for X.
	comp.x.apps
> comp.windows.x.intrinsics	Discussion of the X toolkit.
	comp.x.intrinsics
> comp.windows.x.motif	The Motif GUI for the X Window System.
	comp.gui.motif
> comp.windows.x.openlook	Same as comp.windows.open-look.
	BOOM

	comp.x.pex
