% In German, for example, the lowercase rule means that _all_ nouns in
% newsgroup names must be written wrong (because in German, all nouns start
% with an uppercase letter). Now this may or may not be a problem, but I see
% no good reason for the standard to define the one right way here.

Many Italian groups are written wrong (it.discussioni.universita should
be it.discussioni.università) but I see no big problem, since a name is
just a placeholder. I hate that *descriptions* are written wrong, since
docheckgroups chockes when I use ' .

ciao, .mau.
