[ I hope this doesn't disappear like some news groups do!!! ] I am PISSED!!!! I have posted several times, attempting to find out what happened to fa.info-mac and it's replacement mod.computers.macintosh. I have gotten NO answers!!!!! Is this just another ploy by the keepers of the net to eliminate the nets groups with a lot of traffic!!! I DO appreciate the time and effort that the keepers of the net and the moderators put into this thing called USENET. However, I don't like it when you start mucking around with stuff the works and replace it with stuff that doesn't! You didn't even post a message to the groups effected to warn them of the change. Come on ... either fix the mod.comp.mac group or return fa.info-mac to service!

I (as maintainer of the gateway), have repeatedly mailed requests to the info-mac-request address with no response or result. I have since put the gateway on the local redistribution list of info-mac at ucb. At this point, if nothing is coming through, then nothing is being sent out by the unresponsive ARPANET moderator. in future please try to maintain some decorum in your messages, Erik E.
