I would like to open discusssion on creating a new newsgroup called

comp.client-server

There are many issues involved in creating a client/server environment which
do not fit into any current newsgroup.
There is a wide range of technical issues and questions that an open forum
on client/server topics would be of great benefit to a whole range of people 
on usenet. There are programming, database, communications, pricing, hardware,
etc. aspects of cleint/server architecture. I am sure that the pooling of
information from across the nodes on usenet will help everyone migrating
to this new technology.

This should be an open forum without moderation.

If you think of other groups that this should have been posted to please
let me know.

Discussion on my proposal will take place for 30 days in news.groups.

Thanks,
Allen
