First:

1) gnu.config is ONLY distributed on USENET.  You miss a lot of the
GNU community by posting here.

2) gnu.config is meant for testing the gnu.all subUSENET, and discussing
administriva about keeping the gnu.all subUSENET running.  Only USENET
site administrators should have to read this newsgroup.

The appropriate thing to do with messages announcing lawsuits like
Adobe's, their status, outcome et al. is to post them to gnu.announce,
or equivalently, mail them to info-gnu@prep.ai.mit.edu.

Substantial, informed, real information about these issues (as opposed
to opinion and flame) is always welcome in info-gnu/gnu.announce.
