The only alternative that would make much sense, in my opinion, is the
addition (not replacement) of a moderated group such as
comp.lang.python.moderated.  Having c.l.c.moderated and
c.l.c++.moderated is a great alternative to reading the unmoderated
equivalents; they're lower volume and have a lot of the off-topic
nonsense and flamewars trimmed out.
