Recently I have seen seven new mod.* groups created. They are:
mod.singles
mod.unix
mod.std.c
mod.std.mumps
mod.sources
mod.music
mod.movies
As far as I know the only valid mod group is mod.ber. Are any of these
real? Should I just remove them? If they are not valid groups then who
is the dummy who created them?

Mark Horton is the one who sent out the "newgroup" messages for those. He should be posting something to net.announce explaining their creation. That should be in the very near future. In the meantime, just hold on. Oh, and don't be surprised if a few more mod groups show up in the meantime. -- Off the Wall of Gene Spafford The Clouds Project, School of ICS, Georgia Tech, Atlanta GA 30332 CSNet: Spaf @ GATech ARPA: Spaf%GATech.CSNet @ CSNet-Relay.ARPA uucp: ...!{akgua,allegra,amd,hplabs,ihnp4,seismo,ut-sally}!gatech!spaf

The mod.all groups recently created are real. We are currently still organizing, but we expect an announcement to be made soon. In the meantime, sit tight. Mark Horton
