- Yes, but there is a difference. A .d group wouldn't just alleviate the
- non-binary messages in c.b.a2 but provide a discussion area for the programs
- posted. I don't read c.s.a2 every day because it is too large of a group and
- I don't have enough time on my accounts. Moderation and a .d group are two
- completely different things. A moderated group would inhibit postings and a
- .d group would allow for non-binary requests, comments, or descriptions to be
- posted.
