[news.admin] News Propigation Time

jal3495@ritcv.UUCP (Jeff Leyser) (09/19/88)

I'm interested in the 'average' news propigation time, as well as the
'longest' time.  I am _not_ looking for each site to tell me how long it
takes for news to reach them; rather, I am hoping that someone has done
an offical or non-offical study of the USENET 'time lag.'

Please _DO_NOT_ post replies!  Mail them to me, and I will post a
summary to the net in a week or so (if I get any answers, that is!).

Thanks in advance.

P.S.  I have limited distribution to North America, as I am not interested
in the time it takes to send USENET over-seas.
