The netscape.public.* hierarchy, including all of the mozilla groups,
is now being distributed over USENET.

If you would like to read these newsgroups off of your local server,
that is now possible.  If your site doesn't carry these groups, and you
would like it to, talk to your local news administrator and have them
ask your upstream feeds for the netscape.public.* hierarchy.  (Please
don't ask us for a direct feed; get it from your upstream providers.)

Anyone who has added these groups to their active file will be spooling
them.  We sent out newgroup control messages April 9th.  We want to be
listed in the active file maintained at ISC which many sites use to
sync their active files; we also want to have our keys and entry in the
hierarchies FAQ in place, since these things will help get most sites
to accept our groups.  However, our messages to the appropriate folks
have met with radio silence of late, so we decided we might as well go
ahead and announce our feeds now anyway, since lots of people have been
asking for them.

For more information on the mozilla.org newsgroups, see
"http://www.mozilla.org/community.html".

Here is the "checkgroups" message:
