This should be seen as a troll. There are 10s of thousands of
newsgroups, the vast majority of which have failed. Yet "Yevgeniy S",
who isn't known anywhere on Usenet for discussing this topic, wants a
series of brand-new newsgroups.

If the proponent can't be bothered to discuss the topic himself, that's
a sure sign of a bad proponent.

Have discussion first. If somehow there is enough discussion to warrant
a separate newsgroup, then bring it up at that time, but there never
will be as "Yevgeniy S" has no interest in starting discussion himself.

"Doctor! No one is discussing this topic on Usenet!"

"Start the discussion yourself."
