Is it the intention of this committee to make RFC977bis a complete
specification for the Usenet news system?

It seems that many of the discussions on here of late have focussed on
the underlying news storage and retrieval system, not on issues of
transport, which is the scope of the original RFC977.

I believe it is time to split the transfer, storage, and reading issues.
