Why not rename all the comp.os.386bsd groups to >comp.unix.pc.net2bsd or comp.unix.net2bsd? For legal reasons, 386bsd, NetBSD, FreeBSD are NOT UNIX. So they do not belong in comp.unix. This is the reason comp.os.386bsd was name comp.os. If you really want to get rid of the '386' how about comp.os.pdbsd comp.os.pc.bsd comp.os.bsd.pc risner personally I don't mind the comp.os.386bsd tree.
