"How do I Start a New Newsgroup? 

To create a newsgroup in the "Big 8" mainstream hierarchies (comp, 
humanities, rec, sci, soc, misc, talk, news): An RFD (Request For Discussion) 
is presented to news.announce.newgroups and discussion is held in 
news.groups. After a month of discussion a CFV (Call For Votes) is issued. To 
win, the proposal must have 100 more YES votes than NO votes and two/thirds 
of the votes must be YES. See the articles "How to Create a New Usenet 
Newsgroup" and "Usenet Newsgroup Creation Companion", which are periodically 
posted to news.announce.newusers, news.answers, and news.groups."



I would go for comp.emulators.win4lin  .
