I have not gotten any response from David regarding feeding the kernel
list etc without addresses into the linux.dev.kernel etc groups. I will
start doing that on Thursday if I have not heard from David till then.
Following this post is a list of the current linux.* hierachy. This
evidently needs cleaning up but we are in the beginning stages. Feeds
available on request (some feeds have already been arranged). Advice
regarding sending a checkgroups out to fix up the hierachy needed.
I have added the
linux.redhat.*
linux.debian.*
newsgroups which gate the redhat and debian mailing lists into usenet (one
way..)
All newsgroups are hereby declared unmoderated.
*.announce
*.changes
are to be read-only.
Future discussions regarding these matters should take place on either
linux.admin.news
or on
linux-admin-news@list.fuller.edu
(send a message with "subscribe" to linux-admin-news-request@list.fuller.edu)
