! gnUSENET (gnUSENET is Not USENET) is a set of newsgroups that are
! gated bi-directionally with the Internet mailing lists about the GNU
! Project of the Free Software Foundation. GNU (GNU's Not Unix) will be
! a complete operating system, including application programs, with
! freely redistributable source code. The GNU Project is led by Richard
! Stallman. Please use ONLY gnu.misc.discuss for discussion of topics
! considered contrary to GNU aims and political philosophy (e.g.,
! porting of GNU code to Apple machines, usefulness of intellectual
! property laws).
