  I sent the following to flora.general earlier today.  Just thought I'd
post it here as well for any thoughts.

Subject: Future of flora.general Newsgroup?


  I look over the older archives of this group.  There isn't much in it
these days but SPAM.  It is the only non auto-moderated newsgroup that
FLORA hosts, and as far as I know doesn't have much of a readership.

  I will look for opinions, but don't expect any.  If you feel that having
this newsgroup serves some purpose, then please post.  If I don't manage
to get convinced by a flood of messages, I will be removing this group
from the news server (rmgroup) as well as any related infrastructure.


  I did see one relevant posting from Nathan D Richards who should be
advised to re-post his message to the FLORA Helpdesk
<http://www.flora.org/flora/help/> given that I don't believe anyone reads
this group.


  For those looking for general discussion they should probably go to
ott.general  - for those who want to comment on FLORA activities, might I
suggest posting comments to the FLORA Weblog at http://weblog.flora.org/
