>Hi, isn't it about time Lua had a Newsgroup?? comp.lang.lua?

I asked this when the list had 100 people in it and the reply in the list was
mostly against it (see the archive).
There are now around 150 people in the list. So, maybe the mood has changed.
I think 100 "yes" votes are needed to create a newsgroup.
I don't know much about the process, though.
I think it needs to be conducted by an impartial party (ie., not the Lua team).
Any volunteers?

Well, if you get the archive and read it with a mail reader that supports
threads (eg., Netscape's), then it'll do this for you.

Also, the mirror at eGroups.com probably supports threads and searching.
