Textfile Writing Groups
It was natural that groups of close friends, working together to write textfiles
on whatever subjects they considered their own, would start considering
themselves a sort of rock and roll band, or maybe a gang. To this end, Textfile
"Groups" starting making appearances early in the 1980's, and of course it's
gotten completely out of hand.
Some groups had members that never actually met each other; they did all their
work online and might be many many miles apart, or even in different countries.
Some groups were open to anyone who wanted to be a member, and some were finite
and refused to expand or contract. And then there's the cDc.
