  1. Anyone else noticed a big "hole" in the NG? Certainly seems to have happened to me (I use Google
    Groups for such things, so could be a fault local to them), as the posts from the weekend have
    apparently gone, though I could certainly read them this time yesterday!

    Not specific to this NG, but google has just dropped a chunk of my postings over the past week (they
    were definitely in their archive until recently).

    Yes, Google Groups seems to have mislaid a couple of days worth of posts both from this group
    and r.b.t. It's a fair bet they're aware of the problem and I imagine normal service will be
    resumed shortly.

    As I've said elsewhere, NTL managed to "lose" all of the comp.* and misc.* hierarchy - and possibly
    some others. URC, being a marvellous NG remained active. I'm not sure how NTL's error would have
    affected the "spread" of NGs over the world wide usenet. Perhaps it wasn't NTL's fault at all. Did I
    really just type that last sentence? ;-0

    Maybe I was being optimistic. The 2 day hole - 26/27 April - is still there.

    All seems to be OK now, and the "lost" posts are there again!

    Maybe you've just kf'ed me and Smith - that would make it seem like there was no activity ;-)
