Recently, I was asked whether it might be possible to create
yet another mailing list called something like INFO-UNIX,
distinct from UNIX-WIZARDS.  I decided to ask all you folks
what you think of this idea.

The intent would be for there to be a place where novices could
communicate about UNIX, and where a lot of the grotty little
problems that come up time and time again could be directed.
Presumably, this would save the "wizards" list for stronger stuff.

Of course, enough helpful people experienced with UNIX would have
to subscribe to INFO-UNIX, or this whole scheme would break down.

The bad side to this suggestion is that it makes for one more list
to belong to for many of the current Wizards.

My own feeling is that this is probably a good idea, and BRL is willing
to transmit the list.  Discussion?
