  16. So maybe you want
  17.     comp.os.sue-me-too.bsdi
  18.     comp.os.sue-me-too.bsd43
  19.     comp.os.sue-me-too.bsd44
  20.     comp.os.sue-me-too.386bsd
  21.  
  22. Me, I like it just fine the way it is.  I don't think the traffic here
  23. warrants a separate group yet.  I'm not sure it ever will; many of the
  24. bugfixes and questions will have application across all the BSD-derived
  25. platforms.
