While that is true, I think part of the point is also to create a 
postgresql big8 newsgroup.

I don't think that is an insurmountable problem if it were actually 
desirable that the name be changed.  Most of the participants on on the 
list, and thus would be unaffected.  The rest use servers that have low 
or automatic standards for group creation, so it wouldn't be too 
difficult to point people to the new group on those servers.

Since people like the current name, though, it is clearly not worth the 
potential confusion <g>.
