Groups for CP/M on Apple systems started



Hi, y'all!

    This afternoon I decided to start an Apple CP/M group.  I started
with Yahoo! groups because I've had some experience running a Yahoo!
group.  So the Yahoo! group "Apple CPM" now exists.  But the automated
system at Yahoo! objected to the use of "CP/M" because "the use of
'CP' is not allowed".  So I went to Google groups.  They did allow the
use of "Apple CP/M" so there is now an "Apple CP/M" Google group.

    However, Google groups apparently doesn't allow for a directory
structure in its file area.  Yahoo! Groups does.  I was planning on
having a directory for Macintosh and Apple II and subdirectories for
software for the various Apple II CPU cards within the Apple II
directory.

    I'm not happy that Yahoo! doesn't allow "CP/M" to appear in the
group's name.  But I apparently can't build the directory structure I
was hoping for in the Google group.  So, I'm undecided about which
group to spend my time on.  Gentle reader, your input would be
appreciated.

    Access to either group is restricted, primarily to foil spammers.
