I have found that there are two goups that are virutally identical, this one
and alt.comp.lang.php. I have also found that by multi-posting to the two
groups I have sometimes (seldom) received answers from alt.comp.lang.php
before (or even sometimes only) before getting help from this one.
Therefore, I multi-post to the two.
Now, when two groups are SOOOO close, couldn't something be done to unify
the two so that going to the less popular one (the other one) would
automatically redirect the user to this one?
