As most of you will know, there is a plan to reorganise the Mozilla newsgroup hierarchy. The new hierarchy has now been finalised - however, unfortunately, Netscape IS (who are responsible for making the changes) are not going to be able to make them until their major news rearchitecture, which involves new servers and several other changes, happens. This will be at the end of January/early February - that's the current estimate (up from mid-January earlier this week.) This is because (for reasons that have not been explained to me) doing this upgrade requires a freeze on all configuration changes on the server from 12/18/00, and there is not time to reorganise n.p.m.* before that date. As a side note, for those who believe that _Netscape's_ current news hierarchy could do with a bit of work, a polite mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] may well be the correct approach. (I have no idea what their reorganisation involves, so they may already be planning to do what you want.) The tracking bug for this issue from the Mozilla side is: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62228 The final plan for the newsgroup renaming can be found at: http://www.mozilla.org.uk/newsgroups.txt Gerv
