I do have reservations about the idea, based on experience with all the
Digital Mars C++ newsgroups. There are too many, making for rather thin
traffic. It's tedious to check them all for new postings, which means
that that doesn't happen, and new postings often languish as a result.
The main D n.g. gets a lot of action, which feeds on itself. I'm
reluctant to mess with success.
