- That's where machine independent stuff like the nn newsreader group
- are, but *.amiga.something would make more sense under the existing
- comp.sys.amiga hierarchy for amiga specific topics.

- comp.sources.amiga and comp.binaries.amiga is something we should deal
- with one of these days. People have been arguing here that they want
- to read/recieve/archive a whole specific uucp/news sources group
- separately, as is done now with alt.sys.amiga.uucp.patches. Gee, it
- works already. :-) All we have to do is get .uucp moved to comp and
- we're all set for business as usual. It would be nice if whole
- binaries and sources for major revisions could be cross posted to
- comp.{sources|binaries}.amiga.
