- I have created two newsgroups (aus.books and aus.photo). Iain Sinclair
- has created a newsgroup (aus.cars). I recall Brent Curtis created
- aus.motorcycles.
-
- None of us are 'K.' Robert Elz, nor did we ask for his approval
- before issuing a newgroup message. The newsgroups are widely honoured.
-
- There are two salient facts to bear in mind: one, kre cares less about
- this sort of thing than is popularly supposed; and two, most sites will
- honour any sensible newsgroup.
-
- I'd suggest you get used to this situation.
