   I recently returned to the OS/2 newsgroups after a long absence. What   
   I'm now seeing are 32 newsgroups, most of which have no traffic, but   
   it's hard to see the pattern of which ones are in use. Those articles   
   that do turn up are frequently cross-posted, presumably because the   
   poster is not sure where the helpful people might be hanging out.   
      
   Wouldn't it be better to post occasional messages saying "This group is   
   dead", and re-directing people to comp.os.os2.misc? That, plus   
   comp.os.os2.announce, should be all that we need.   
      
   I haven't looked at the news.ecomstation.com news server, so I don't   
   know how active that is these days.
