Actually the list was created because some people were sick of hearing about KB in net.music, and I don't know any of the politics for creating newsgroups. Someone told me if the bandwidth stays at where it is for another few weeks, then it would be a good claim to a newsgroup. For those who need their KB info quickly, I would still maintain the mailling list. Articles could easily be routed in both directions. Actually, the mailing list seems to be working pretty well, but it's often nice to get some outside input too. The biggest problem with newsgroups is that articles tend to just vanish without a trace. -Doug
