I would like to see this group formed. Given that it may want to grow
in the future, I feel that the group should be near the top of the
vmsnet hierarchy, e.g. something like:

	vmsnet.alpha	(perhaps initially)

with more groups added later. As a few examples:

	vmsnet.alpha.porting
	vmsnet.alpha.porting.macro32
	vmsnet.alpha.programming

and perhaps some hardware related groups.

vmsnet.pdp-11
