Hrmmm - I can see how the firewall issue comes into play for the
question of whether or not to move the lcad list here, but if people
are accessing a news server to read rtl, why couldn't they access
lugnet to do the same with these groups?

Unless you mean just people using corporate servers, I suppose?

Corporate servers is where firewalls usually are, yeah. A company
sponsors the groups that are broadcasted. But lugnet's are not
broadcasted.

However, I note that I moved to downloading news on my own machine
because I was never able to get trn on my local ISP to access
sff.net's groups. THat's a compile-time option, evidently.
