: What about:
 

: comp.databases.oracle.rdbms -> for dbas, sql language, etc.
: comp.databases.oracle.dev2000
: .des2000 -> Designer/2000
: .web -> web server, power browser
: .po -> Power Objects
: .dis2000 -> Discovery 2000
: .newmedia -> Media objects, ..
: .jobs -> For jobs...
: .announce -> For new products.
 

: Well... the idea is to create areas for specific products of Oracle.
: People now are talking about names above. It's good to use the same
: names for groups.

Why not start with the smaller number of news groups and then if comp.databases.oracle.tools still has too much traffic, consider a further split based on what is discussed most.

I think that we need to just start off with a small number of groups as stated in the draft RFD, and make sure that people post within the charter for each group.

I suggest that comp.databases.oracle.marketplace be split into: comp.databases.oracle.jobs - unmoderated comp.databases.oracle.announce - moderated

Thanks, Steve for putting in the effort to draft an RFD. You have my continued support.
