Things don't happen by magic - I am the person who created the UU
groups, set up the ftp archive at nic.funet.fi & the gopher server at
otax.tky.hut.fi, wrote some initial stuff and so on, and I have tried
to make it clear from the beginning that UU is a cooperative volunteer
effort.  Anyone is encouraged to work on things like the consultants
list, the freelore project, and start similar projects - as well as
collect material and guides on how to get information from the vast
resources of Usenet, like the FAQ archives.
