I *think* we're more or less caught up with requests to carry new USENET NetNews newsgroups. Kent Covert regularly updates the MiaVX1 (VMS) master newsgroup list against the global lists published regularly on the net. Steve Moore does likewise for MiamiU (VM) and will shortly be adding a large block of alt.* hierarchy newsgroups not previously available in NetNews on VM. The following recently requested newsgroups are now available on all OpenVMS systems (MiaVX3 in Middletown, MiaVX2 in Hamilton, and MiaVX1 in Oxford) and will be available shortly on the VM/CMS system (MiamiU): alt.alien.visitors alt.fan.mike-jittlov alt.law-enforcement alt.personals.spanking alt.tv.highlander alt.tv.robotech soc.religion.quaker -- John B Harlan Campus Wide Information System (CWIS) Coordinator Miami University (Ohio USA) [log in to unmask]
