From: Peter Olcott on 14 May 2010 23:53 We can create a new newsgroup to replace the ones that Microsoft will be deleting. From what I remember creating a new newsgroup in the alt hierarchy is really easy. It would be better in the comp hierarchy, but, this is more difficult and requires substantial agreement by many people.

The Microsoft server might be shut down, but the hierarchy will probably live on for eternity on the rest of USENET. -- Bert Hyman St. Paul, MN bert(a)iphouse.com
