Linux-specific topics not covered by other groups.
The canonical ``catch-all'' for discussions and questions which
don't fit into the other Linux newsgroups. While c.o.l.setup is
generally for questions, c.o.l.misc is for discussions of a
general nature about Linux, such as setting up a file hierarchy
standard or questions about Linus' personal life and virtual
beer. Again, it should be noted that crossposting between
c.o.l.misc and other Linux newsgroups is strongly discouraged. If
your posting or question does not fit into ONLY ONE of the other
Linux newsgroups, post it to c.o.l.misc.
