- One specific question: I, personally, don't have any very strong
- preference for either sci.physics.research or sci.physics.moderated.
- I believe that both of these names are adequate to the task: that is,
- someone who's glancing at a list of newsgroups will probably be able
- to tell from the name whether or not they would be interested in
- reading the group, and someone who's looking for the group will be
- able to find it. There's been a bit of discussion about the name,
- though, so if other people do feel strongly about it, it's not too
- late for it to be changed.
-
- Does anybody out there feel strongly about the name one way or the
- other? If not, I'll keep it as is.
-
-
- I vote for sci.physics.moderated. (Why is it necessary to feel "strongly"
- about this? Is there some difficulty with changing the name at this
- point?)
