Scott & Frank, what do you think about separating out some of the functions of
.admin.general? (Read: Do you think less experienced users would feel more
comfortable in .admin.general if some of the more "hard core" functions were
moved out to other .admin groups?)
Splitting up .admin.general is something I've kinda wanted to do for a long
time, but never saw a good reason. Maybe what you write above is good enough
reason.
I think that if a new group .admin.news were created (for example) for
newsgroup issues and the like, it would offload that type of discussion out
of .admin.general and leave it for other issues.
Some admin issues are better off with input mainly from old-timers and some
are better off with input mainly from newbies, and some are best with a mix.
Maybe even .admin.newsgroups and .admin.newsreaders (or .admin.newsclients)
as separate groups, as the former is probably an old-timer magnet and the
latter is probably a mix-magnet or newbie-magnet.

| (...) Much better than .admin.news. I suspect many people would read that as being "news about .admin" - that would be my first guess even though I do use a newsreader and have been reading newsgroups for years. Kevin (25 years ago, 9-Mar-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
