[rec.games.hack] NetHack messages

The quantum mechanic hits... --More-- The lineater is teleported!

Can we please restrict NetHack discussion to rec.games.hack?
Granted, bugfixes seem to belong in comp.sources.bugs, but when
they start getting followed-up by discussion, it gets outa hand.
Comp.sources.d seems toally inappropriate: we have our own newsgroup
(rec.games.hack), why take another???

I think the majority of rec.games.hack readers (myself included)
are interested in nethack bugs/bugfixes. I doubt the same is true
for comp.sources.d and comp.sources.bugs.

Followups have been (hopefully) directed to rec.games.hack ONLY.

Please don't think I'm flaming -- personally, I'm waiting for the
2.3 official bugfixes and a COMPLETE guide on how to bring it
up bug-free on a PC. But I don't think discussion should span
three newsgroups.

That's fine, but I don't get the rec groups and I'd still like to know
what the bug fixes are.  (I would like to get the rec groups -- some of
them, anyway -- but my feed has had their feed trimmed down!)
