(On confusion about comp.sources.mac)

I think, judging from some of my correspondence, that some sites have
created comp.sources.mac (and removed net.sources.mac). The result is
that postings to these groups aren't propagating.

I *THINK* that crossposting to both groupnames (c.s.m and n.s.m) should
cause articles to propagate intact through sites which carry either
group, and may therefore serve as a fix until someone lets the offending
sites know that they should get rid of comp.sources.mac and bring back
n.s.m.  Would someone who is more knowledgable in the ways of news
please advise as to whether this is a good idea?
