- I'm wondering about the alternative structure of
-
- vmsnet.sysmgt.* (* from set of VAX, AlphaAXP, DECSYSTEM, etc...)
- vmsnet.os.* (e.g. * from the set of OSF1, OpenVMS, WindowsNT)
-
- From a conceptual standpoint I see these groupings as a little more
- natural than having a group for every member of the cross between
- architecture and area of interest.
