I like that idea.  Now, the discussions may not be crap (most of them
are quite worthwhile), but placing them in a separate newsgoup would
definately be a boon towards organizing USENET a bit more.  Since the
sources are usually free or public domain, what if the new newsgroup
was given a "catchy" name, like net.free-pd?  (Hey, that rhymes!)
"Net.sources.d" just sounds *so* boring.
