)     What a good idea.  Let's follow up on it by merging all newsgroups
) and using kill mechanisms to select what to read.

I must have missed something -- political posturing?  Either you are a
little too sensitive or I am not sensitive enough.  I haven't seen any
more political messages in the g++ mailing list than I have seen in
any other mailing list.  In fact, the amount of hard technical
information is far more prevalent in the g++/c++ mailing lists than
any other I am aware of.  In addition, some of the differences between
g++ and c++ adds a healthy and useful dimension to this mailing list
by giving different perspectives and implementations of C++.
