That's fair enough, but taking how other NG's evolve and divide into
consideration, I think that it's reasonable that compartmentalisation of the
buy-sell-trade NG could be desirable for the _very_same_reasons_ as the
non-market groups. I think it's fair to say that a few of us in loc.au think
that it is indeed desirable. Given that shipping from Oz is relatively
expensive, I think that non-Aussies could see a benefit too, yes?
