Ok, since I have EN 'and' Giga it only took me a couple minutes to
find a dead/empty group with an easy name that we could easily venture
to. (I had to do this a couple months back for another friendly group)
Since there are only a few of us, it wouldn't be hard to spread the
word.
How about a.b.daws ??
The name won't invite unwanted ' related' spam, and it's clean dead
empty.
Both EN and Giga carry it.
Thoughts?
