Reformatting lugnet.dear-lego (by retroactively altering its charter) sounds
like a great idea to me (and to Suzanne).  Anyone have any objections to
that?

I like the idea especially for the following reasons:

1.  If people at Lego Direct are planning to read and participate actively
    in at least one of the groups here, then lugnet.dear-lego is just as
    good as any, IMHO.

2.  If a group named something else were created, then lugnet.dear-lego
    would probably still end up being used a lot of the time anyway by
    people, since it's an inviting name and a top-level group.

3.  Since lugnet.dear-lego is a top-level group, it is perfectly positioned
    for additional subgroups later...if, when, and as appropriate.

4.  Any additional focused subgroups of lugnet.dear-lego created down the
    road would each be subscribeable via e-mail (as mailing lists) just like
    any other lugnet newsgroup, which could be nice for people at Lego
    Direct if the volume of traffic in the main .dear-lego group is high.


How does this sound as a new charter for lugnet.dear-lego:

   lugnet.dear-lego:  Online communication-to-LEGO channel;
       formal dialogues with the LEGO Company; suggestions,
       opinions, likes & dislikes, questions, etc.

[Brad, is there anything in the text immediately above which should not be
encouraged (for example, product suggestions)?  Or do you intend for LEGO
Direct to go the whole nine yards and become intimiately involved?]
