[Followups directed to the sbay.news.group newsgroup.] At the Nov 18, 2000 sbay.org pizza meeting, discussion was started on the subject of adding new newsgroups to the sbay.* hierarchy. The discussion started with... * Add sbay.networking - networking technical projects and development This would be for discussion of networking projects in the South Bay, including hobby, research or commercial projects. Specifically, this will be the location where sbay.org's SBAY Wireless Network and newly-formed SBAY IPv6 Project will post news and periodical info, and where questions about them should be directed. * Remove sbay.waffle There is no longer any discussion of Waffle BBS installations, and probably no installations left. It isn't too late to suggest other new newsgroups. This decison will probably be finalized by sbay.org participants at the December 16, 2000 meeting. A list of the current sbay newsgrous is at http://www.sbay.org/ Note that the sbay newsgroups cover the South Bay Area, which is a geographical subset of the region covered by the ba.* newsgroups. Overlapping newsgroup topics should be avoided unless there's a reason that a South Bay subset is needed. In particular, don't even bother suggesting a jobs newsgroup, since ba.jobs.* has already been a huge burden over the years for the volunteers who have attempted to keep it running and prevent spammers from driving away all the readers. Our newsgroup maintenance volunteers simply won't accept the task. Ian Kluft sbay.org newsgroups coordinator
