While I appreciate the motivations that Erik talks about in reference to
the posting of the FidoNet newsletter, I strongly believe that the 
appropriate distribution mechanism for this sort of thing is a MAILING LIST,
suitably advertised on the net.  It is *NOT* appropriate, I feel, to 
distribute this via Usenet (not to mention the groups selected for
cross-posting).

If the demand reaches sufficient levels (200+) then perhaps we can all discuss 
making it a new newsgroup, or a part of another group, but in the meantime I'd 
like to see the postings stop.
