Can we get a lugnet.robotics.nxt newsgroup soon?

I started this thread, so obviously my vote is for creating a separate NXT
group.
In other posts some people indicated they’d like all discussions grouped
together so they’re easier to see in news reading software.
It’s been my habit to post to the most specific group I can, and then cross post
to levels higher up. A post about the RCX from me would be in both
lugnet.robotics.rcx and lugnet.robotics with the follow-up group set to
lugnet.robotics.rcx. That way people at the higher level at least see the first
post in the thread if their software makes them subscribe to each subgroup.
I noticed the RCX subgroup itself has subgroups for different languages
(lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc), and presumably many of those languages will be
NXT-compatible eventually. I think a bigger issue/decision to make concerns
them.
Do we want to split programming discussions based on the hardware?
lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc
lugnet.robotics.nxt.nqc
A given language will be pretty much the same regardless of what hardware you’re
running it on . . . or will it? I guess this is only applicable to the non-GUI
languages. Clearly the new NXT-exclusive graphical language can’t be put under
lugnet.robotics.rcx, so where else would it go? It would have to be under
lugnet.robotics.nxt.newGraphicalLanguage
Thus, we need lugnet.robotics.nxt for that, too.
