I'd especially love to see a _pair_ of groups -- .rant and .rave -- the
former being for letting off steam and the latter being for posting • praise.
And you wouldn't be allowed to post praise in .rant or to post a rant in
rave :)

Go ahead you've got my vote on both.

Next, I wonder if there should be a lugnet.debate group (meaning for LEGO-
related debates).

Perfect, I'd subscribe to it in a New York minute!

There was a thread a couple months ago about possibly reorganizing the
.market area.  I really was serious about that and feel we need to attack
this again.  My current thoughts are along the lines of blowing away the
two groups .market.auction and .market.buy-sell-trade, and creating in
their place the three groups .market.forsale, .market.wanted, and
.market.swap.

Actually I think that doing this would be great. Then I wouldn't have to
sift
through all the ones that's aren't "sell" "wanted" "swap" ect. in one big NG
like it is now.

  Newsgroup structure: some tough decisions
 
I'd like to kick off a discussion about the current state of the newsgroup structure here -- missing groups, unnecessary, groups, annoyingly or confusingly named groups, etc. The goal of this discussion is to come away with a list of practical (...) (24 years ago, 5-Mar-01, to lugnet.admin.nntp, lugnet.admin.terms, lugnet.announce, lugnet.org, lugnet.market.auction, lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade, lugnet.loc.us, lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.off-topic.debate) !!
