I am happy to annouce that the newsgroups are back. The news server software
had a bug that seemed to make all post dissapear. I would do a rebuild_piles
and they would be back but only for a few hours then they would dissapear
again. Dnews finally fixed the bug and we should be up and running for good
(Fingers crossed). I would also like to annouce the addition of a new group.
This group is called general.diiscussion and is for just that, general
discussion. I know some of you will still flame users for postings that you
deem off topic anyway but remember you can still flame for bad grammer and
typos!

So you might want to change the network status page then...

And why call it general.discussion when it's OBVIOUS discussion happens in newsgroups? "general" is sufficient.

Do you want the newsgroups down for another two weeks? If everyone did, I'm
sure they'd be more than happy to change it.
