I'm not familar with what it takes to create a newsgroup. If there's enough interest in such a thing, I'd be willing to maintain a PDP-11 mailing list. We could do a newsgroup if there's interest in that, though I suspect a lot of the interested parties aren't on the Usenet. A moderated newsgroup could be set up that's just a gateway to/from the mailing list (much like comp.os.vms is currently set up). So, if you're interested, send mail, or post a followup (followups redirected to news.groups). --Pat.
