One example of a USENET(Internet) group that is carried on some FIDONET BBS's
is MISC.EMERG-SERVICES which is FIRENET on an australia wide fidonet echo.
 
As some APANA site have FIDONET groups I can not see why AARNET users could not

discussion of course). I am just tring to find out how this could be done.
