"NeXTweek" used to be a weekly summary of NeXT related events, posted to
comp.sys.next.announce. It was not working very well because of mailing and
summarizing delays, so I stopped doing it when the moderator changed. I had
suggested to both moderators that I thought a comp.sys.next.events newsgroup
might be a good idea, but neither of them seemed to really endorse that, so
I just gave it up.

For some reason NeXTWORLD published the submissions address for it, and my home
phone number, without any verification of what it really was, or if the address
and number were even correct.

I still think a c.s.n.events newsgroup would be a good idea, but don't have
the time to try to start it myself.

I should have posted something about all this before, I apologize to people
who wondered where the address went.
