Would all those people bombarding me with mails of how good it would be
if net.music.* would be forwarded to Europe PLEASE stop doing so.
Almost all those mails refer to forwarding that group to IRCAM (Paris).
There's a strict policy on this part of the network that - since ALL
European sites pay for ALL of the transatlantic news traffic - (new)
newsgroups will only be forwarded to Europe if there's considerable
interest. Interest in net.music.* sofar appears to be at only two sites,
both at IRCAM. Forwarding that group to Europe is therefore out of the
question. Use mailing lists instead.
