Data Administration - Anyone Interested?

There seems to be a lack of attention in the news groups to data administration as opposed to database administration. Topics such as Logical Data Modeling Warehousing Repositories Strategies for modeling distributed data and others Does anyone else out there feel that there needs to be a greater focus on these subjects? It maybe that this is because news groups are generally visited most by techies rather than business side people. I represent the Data Administration Management Association (DAMA) and am thinking about starting a news group on how to manage the data resource. Anyone interested? Diana M.
