I think perhaps the people who are arguing for c.i.www.vrml vs c.i.vrml
are having a culture clash.

Some people, Mark being one of them I believe, see the World Wide Web
to be more than HTML. They see it as incorporating *all* networked
protocols -- a conceptual superset, as it were.

Now, I completely agree with that concept, however the implementation
as regards newsgroups clearly doesn't. We don't have c.i.www.gopher,
do we? Now, maybe this is a historical artifact, maybe not, but I
think for consistency's sake (damn, there's that word again! and I
even got some sleep last night!), it should be comp.infosystems.vrml.
