	Lately there have been requests for information about UNIFY
	INFORMIX, INGRESS, etc and for database info in general.

	Do people out there think there is enough interest in the various
	database products to create subcatagories in net.database?

	net.db.informix
	net.db.ingress
	net.db.sir
	net.db.unify
	etc

	and leave net.database for general db discussion.


	On the other hand, what I am suggesting may already exist and I 
	just don't know about.

The volume of this group is not overly high and there is no danger (so far)
of UNIFY affectionados having to "n" through the torrents of ingress
articles... Besides (I could be wrong on this!) most people would probably
not mind seeing discussions of databases different from the ones they are
currently using. Kind of puts things in a different lite...

I'd vote against subdividing net.database just on the basis of the above
two reasons... At least until the volume in this group reaches the
net.micro.* volumes (;-).
DISCLAMER: The opinions expressed above do not necessarily reflect those of UCLA
or it's emloyees and faculty. The might not even  be mine for all I know...
