- You--and you alone--post a message to biz.config stating your
- intention to create a new BIZ group (that's BIZ, as in "the ONLY
- appropriate place for blatently commercial postings") with some
- reasonable name like biz.next.newprod. Wait a few days. Issue
- a formal newgroup if there are no objections. Announce the
- establishment of the new group in c.s.n.a, but advise people not
- to post to it for a few more days to give news administrators
- time to ensure its propagation.
-
- You'll have your group in no time flat, and those of us who value
- c.s.n.* for useful information content will appreciate having
- "our" newsgroups back.
