Request for Discussion – unmoderated group comp.databases.mysql
Do add your thoughts on this… I know that it hasn’t been pursued in the past because of the MySQL mailing list and the many other resources. But yet, if there’s a demand and some people prefer a news group to a list or forum, why not?
I believe the next step after discussion is a vote on whether to establish the group. That should be in a couple of weeks.
