CALL FOR DISCUSSION: Give comp.unix control to the wizards

And I say no to that! No group, small or large, should have 'control' over
comp.unix. As has been pointed out many 'novices' have posted to comp.unix.\
wizards. Are they to have control over comp.unix because of that while others,
judiciously keeping out of comp.unix.wizards because they felt 
- unqualified to answer the more difficult questions and
- didn't bother with the obvious answers to easy questions
are to take that?

I don't like the idead AT ALL!

The comp.unix reorganization was discussed and voted on and passed. Period.
And that's what I'll honour here. If anybody starts 'mucking around' then
this won't be honoured here. (I have already recompiled news to do newgroup 
and rmgroup manually and will install that version if any mucking about starts 
to take place.)

If comp.unix.wizards EVER gets re-created by a regular vote, I'll be re-
creating it. Until then, it's comp.unix.internals. Please do the reverse
aliasing in your head.

So long
Martin

I forgot to mention: flames are doused in /dev/null, so don't bother.

PS: Disclaimer - this is my opinion entirely, my employers have nothing to
    do with it!
