The only difference between comp.sources.mumble and alt.sources is
that alt.sources is not moderated.  If people wanted to read and post
to a moderated source group, they would use comp.sources.mumble
instead of alt.sources.  People do read and post to alt.sources.
Therefore, there is a need for an unmoderated sources group.

Please do not make alt.sources a comp.sources.misc look-alike.
Comp.sources.misc is a very nice group, but we only need one of them.
