(...) Last time I talked to Todd about this, it was in ref to the .publish.cinema group becomming .animation. He had a plan for trying out with that group first, before moving a .robotics group up in the hierarchy (a bigger move). I'd imagine all (...)

I haven't gotten my complete list of subscribed e-mails from the LUGnet newsgroups for the past couple of days. I checked my subscrition list and out of 14 groups I signed up for, only 3 have been passed to my e-mail account. Some are granted, (...) (22 years ago, 6-Aug-02, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

(...) Suz - Thanks for letting us know of this plan. I look forward to seeing the new group up and running soon. I would be more than happy to have my curator duties extended to that newsgroup along with keeping publish.cinema (if it continues). (...) (22 years ago, 6-Aug-02, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

(...) Well, since we are following up to the nntp newsgroup, I'd vote for an nntp solution. E.g. just add some archive-type newsgroup to each official TLG post, but don't add that to the Follow-up line, and don't allow any post to that newsgroup (...) (22 years ago, 31-Jul-02, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

(...) Good question. Ok, why lugnet.build.arch on LUGNET? Why not lugnet.building.architecture? Why comp.arch.storage on USENET? Why not computers.architecture.storage? Well, in choosing newsgroup names, there's a long tradition (going back 20+ (...) (22 years ago, 30-Jul-02, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

(...) Ugh, I really don't think this is a very intuitive name. Why not lugnet.instructions? I doubt anybody is using a newsreader that's so old you have to actually type the names of the newsgroups.

In order for this to happen, the lugnet.lego newsgroup would have to be added to the 'Newsgroup:' header on an official @lego.com post (if it's not already included explicitly by the poster) -- so that the post would actually appear in (...)
