SAS-L and comp.soft-sys.sas
in [SAS]

From: Arthur Tabachneck on 6 May 2010 08:44 Just a brief update on simultaneously posting to usenet (e.g., Google) and the SAS-L U of G listserv. The method I proposed the other day for simultaneously posting, via email, failed last night. Apparently Joe is trying to correct the situation thus, as a result, pure usenet posts (not Google interestingly) are once again being correctly routed to the UofG listserv. My posts were rejected as being duplicate posts.
