[net.music.classical] the lights are going out all over the Net

This news group has been interesting and educational for me, but sad to
say, it's no longer on the "approved" list in our part of the world --
the gates are going up, the shutters are coming down. Soon we will be huddled
in our chilly Canadian isolation, wondering what the SF Opera is doing this
year? what do people really like about Mahler? how expensive IS a
Boesendoerfer? and no net.music.classical to turn to for answers and further
questions. Those of you fortunate enough to live in a part of Netland where
newsgroups can flourish uncensored by system administrators, cherish
your freedom and "illegitmus non carborandum!"

Is anyone trying to organize a "newsletter" or a "mailing
list" for readers of net.music.classical?  If a central person
agreed to create a digest, thereby controlling the quantity of
characters mailed and the relevance of the list, we could
continue our sharing and discussions via electronic mail and
all the gatewayed nets of the world.

There IS a forum for doing just that.  It's called net.music.  Recently
people there have been discussing 20th century music preferences (like
Berg and Glass).

If net.music.classical is no longer "approved" then net.music probably
will meet the same fate.  I was wondering about someting distributed by
mail from a central site to specific users with addresses
"user@host.domain;" for example, an Arpanet or CSNET distribution.
