- It would actually make more sense to move unix under comp.os rather
- than have a hierarchy of its own. I realize this is for hysterical
- reasons (oops, historical reasons, freudian slip no doubt), but logic
- would indicate that this is a reasonable thing to do.
-
- Moving any os groups not based on AT&T code into comp.unix is probably
- a bad idea.
