I had to include "mainframe" in the subject to keep this On Topic. :-)
IBM has a bunch of newsgroups at news://news.software.ibm.com. Some of them (like the CommServer groups) have no other similar fora (listservers, etc.) My employer blocks NNTP connections so I have to use newsreader-to-http web sites if I want to access the newsgroups from work. The only one I found was a Honk Kong site www.nntp.hk/web/?server=news.software.ibm.com but it no longer works. The site has still been active but no longer presents a list of newsgroups. (I suspect this is pre-Olympics cesnorship, but that's obviously a guess.) Are there any other similar web sites that provide this service?
