A noticeable portion of the u-w traffic would have been perfect for
comp.unix.futures. I'd say it was my favorite part of the group.

Well, I had thought that internals would be the right name, but the word
is ambiguous; some people take it as just kernel, and others take it as
both kernel and programmer. I really do want a group for the kinds of
discussions that the AT&T license doesn't let you participate in.
