p.s.  lugnet.db.inv isn't really intended as a discussion group -- it's
really for posting inventories and followups commenting on the inventories
(pointing out mistakes, etc.).  I guess the database group would be better
for full-on discussions.

The "database" group? Excuse my ignorance, but which group
would that be? If I read my groupinfo correctly, the is no "parent"
group to lugnet.db.* (no group lugnet.db):

(...) Oh -- d'Oh -- well, OK, we could make lugnet.db into a group. Would you find that useful for discussing database things? (24 years ago, 19-Apr-01, to lugnet.admin.nntp)
