I've just installed news on this system and after dutifully posting to net.news.newsite I would like to ask for a "latest copy" of the moderators file that's used at least by the 2.10.3 (beta) copy of news that I'm running. I've found that the list of moderators, let alone the list of newsgroups was woefully out of date. Though after having read the net for about a week now, I guess such is the nature of this beast. Mail would be fine unless you think it my be a good idea to post it. Also, does this file get updated upon the creation of a new moderated news group? Thanks. -- Henry L.

The list of moderators comes from spaf@gatech who has been busy writing a thesis lately and has not had time to post a list. The moderators file on standard netnews is not updated automatically although I have submitted code for a control message to do an update in the same manner as the newsgroup list is updated. No one has responded to this idea since I submitted the modifications almost 6 months ago. Sigh. -- Stan uucp:{shell,rice,drillsys}!soma!sob Opinions expressed Olan ARPA:sob@rice.arpa here are ONLY mine & Barber CIS:71565,623 BBS:(713)660-9262 noone else's.
