The following is a list of currently active USENET newsgroups as of
26 Apr 1993. This list does not include the gatewayed Internet
newsgroups (see below). The groups distributed worldwide are divided
into seven broad classifications: "news", "soc", "talk", "misc",
"sci", "comp" and "rec". Each of these classifications is organized
into groups and subgroups according to topic.
"comp" Topics of interest to both computer professionals and
hobbyists, including topics in computer science, software
source, and information on hardware and software systems.
"sci" Discussions marked by special and usually practical knowledge,
relating to research in or application of the established
sciences.
"misc" Groups addressing themes not easily classified under any of the
other headings or which incorporate themes from multiple
categories.
"soc"Groups primarily addressing social issues and socializing.
"talk"Groups largely debate-oriented and tending to feature long
discussions without resolution and without appreciable amounts
of generally useful information.
"news" Groups concerned with the news network and software themselves.
"rec"Groups oriented towards the arts, hobbies and recreational
activities.
These "world" newsgroups are (usually) circulated around the entire
USENET -- this implies world-wide distribution. Not all groups
actually enjoy such wide distribution, however. Some sites take only
a selected subset of the more "technical" groups, and controversial
"noise" groups are often not carried by many sites (these groups are
often under the "talk" and "soc" classifications). Many sites do not
carry some or all of the comp.binaries groups.
There are groups in other subcategories, but they are local: to
institutions, to geographic regions, etc. and they are not listed
here. Note that these distribution categories can be used to restrict
the propagation of news articles. Currently, distributions include:
world worldwide distribution (default)
att limited to AT&T
can limited (mostly) to Canada
eunet limited (mostly) to European sites in EUNet
na limited (mostly) to North America
usa limited (mostly) to the United States
There may be other regional and local distribution categories available
at your site. Most US states have distribution categories named after
the two letter abbreviation for that state or category (e.g., "ga" for
Georgia, "nj" for New Jersey). Please use an appropriate distribution
category if your article is not likely to be of interest to USENET
readers worldwide.
Some groups are moderated or are monitored mailing lists. They can
only be posted to by mailing submissions to the coordinator (provided
in a companion posting). Some selected sites provide automatic
remailing tp the moderator in support of B2.11 and C news -- posting
to one of these groups automatically mails the article for the poster.
Some of the moderated groups are gatewayed to USENET from the Internet
and appear as newsgroups to facilitate distribution and posting from
the Usenet. Some of these gatewayed Internet newsgroups are listed
below, and the rest appear in a companion posting that lists
alternative newsgroup hierarchies. Other of the "world" groups are
bidirectionally gatewayed with Internet mailing lists; items submitted
from the Internet side to the digest are split up and submitted to the
USENET group, while articles submitted on the USENET side are bundled
up and submitted to the mailing list. A complete list of moderated
newsgroups, submission addresses and moderators is given in a
companion posting.
The following "world" groups have been gatewayed with the listed
Internet lists. Some of them may not still be gatewayed due to
broken software and/or gateways; such groups are marked with an
asterisk ("*") in the list below. Please contact me if you should know
of their current status. Also note that the group "comp.lang.forth" is
gatewayed with the Bitnet discussion list "umforth@weizmann.bitnet",
comp.lang.apl is gatewayed with APL-L at the unb.ca node, and
rec.railroad is run from "railroad@queens.bitnet".
Some of these lists are gated one-way into Usenet groups; those groups
have been marked with a ">" symbol in the list below.
If you are reading this article from a site not on the Usenet, you may
subscribe to Internet lists by writing to the request address. You
form such an address by putting "-request" before the "@" symbol, as
in "unix-emacs-request@vm.tcs.tulane.edu". This gets your message
directly to the list maintainer instead of broadcasting it to all the
readers of the list.
Also note that moderators of Usenet groups may not be in charge of the
corresponding mailing list or gateway. For example, the moderator of
comp.sources.unix does not have anything to do with the unix-sources
mailing list; matters concerning the mailing list should be addressed
to unix-sources-request@brl.mil
