Does it look that way to anyone else? Yes. I'm just not sure whether it's because we're a database project, or because they're trying to wind down groups.google which I can't imagine makes them a whole lot of cash.

I first thought maybe some commercial db doesn't want us on google, then I thought it can't be activity, so it must be that the Usenet group is mostly posted through the gateway and not actually posted to from Usenet. Gavin Sherry said they stopped archiving the linux kernel mailing lists this month too so it might be a new policy of only archiving groups that are primarily posted to from Usetnet. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073

You know all of those delay'd postings that I approve? They are all from the gateway going from news->mail :) So, figure several hundred a week *easily* ... ---- Marc G.
