I think it's rather selfish to name a group after a single bbs if its intent
is to have discussions of ALL unix BBSes.  How about 'comp.unix.bbs' for the
main discussions and subgroups (if necessary) for specific discussions and
source/update/utilities, etc.

I do agree, though, that something like this is needed.  I don't like to
wade through alt.bbs and find nothing about unix boards.
