This question came up several months ago.  After a period of discussion,
it was concluded that 

  A:  There is not enough "pure image processing" traffic to warrant
  another news group.

  B:  Image processing articles should be posted to net.graphics
  because the subjects are so closely related.  Besides the two camps
  will tend to learn from each other, and in most cases the graphics
  people wanted more image processing articles for that very same
  reason.

  C:  If and when the image processing traffic becomes large, everyone
  (graphics and image processing types alike) will agree that a
  separate news group should be created.

  D:  The net.graphics traffic is not large enough to justify the "I'm
  tired of wading through 100's of graphics articles for the two image
  processing articles of interest to me" complaint (also known as the
  "I'm tired of trying to find a joke in net.jokes" complaint).


These opinions were never formally written out like this, but this
seems to be the consensus from what I saw.

Any objections?

Perhaps it would be appropriate to have the 'vislist' arpanet mailing
list gated to USENET.  (Similar to the info-graphics <->mod.graphics link)
