Howdy general message postal service, grin!   
      
   Yes, I know that the IT OS/2 Newsgroup is posted into the Fido BBS OS/2 groups   
   here as copy too.  Thus I do know that someone who has access to the OS/2 News   
   Groups has access to them.   
      
   Yes, I had access to all of them via my Suddenlink IT service.  And very   
   frankly, Suddenlink has been a TREASURE of a service to me for many years here   
   in the TAMU College Station and Bryan, Texas area with their cable service.    
   Which is now even going heavily forward to fiber optic service and WAY upward   
   to 50GB service!  I have actually worked very closely with them on security   
   research and other things.  So the next comment is not at all a negative   
   remark on them.   
      
   Recently for internal reasons that I do have contact about, Suddenlink dropped   
   their actual Internal News Group service for their users.  You can still use   
   their technology to connect to whatever newsgroup you seem to want.    
    However they don't perform as a Newsgroup service group now.  Bye-bye went my   
   entire OS/2 Newsgroup Access although I still have complete access to the   
   actual Firefox and Seamonkey OS/2 development operations with no problem for   
   example.   
      
   Can anyone here tell ne where I can connect to a complete connection server   
   site for the OS/2 groups?  Hopefully for free?  From what I think may be   
   correct, it looks like the entire OS/2 Newsgroup operation may be available   
   with access to the MIT Technology school.  But they focus on MIT student   
   interface support.  Which I think I could subscribe to as an 'external'   
   connection to that source.  However before I go there, is there anyone here   
   that can comment here?  For all those years back to even the start of OS/2   
   with IBM I was a completely paid developer support operation with them.   
   However OS/2 has spun down in the dwindle of all that for what is 'normally'   
   still related to OS/2 with IBM as I think I understand things.   
      
   Yes, this still can be a Fido BBS issue as sometimes very important OS/2   
   comments that are present in the 'formal' developers news areas are of serious   
   value as copied to the Fido BBS operations.  So I think this is a valid   
   subject when posted here.   
      
   Thanks!
