Well *.misc is actually a good name, if you actually have any
break-apart of programming topics. On the other hand, after nearly 9
years of c.g.d.p.* the level of traffic has gone decidedly down, not
up. I suppose Usenet is a dying medium. It's actually tempting to
collapse the whole thing to comp.games.development. *.art and *.audio
were never much used.
Years ago we tried to get comp.games.development.moderated going, but
the proposal fell apart.
