I read several moderated newsgroups -- sci.math.research & sci.physics.research among them -- and they're anything but moribund, even after several years. If we have to split the group, I'd rather do it along the following lines: 1. Installation Problems 2. Technical problems and discussions 3. Philosophy (and/or name-calling, as appropriate) If I could make one change to the group, I'd require that each message include in the subject-line the system (RTL/RTAI) to which it pertains.
