Did a bit of searching.  This may be of some help.

Group Creation Policies see
"HIERARCHY MAINTENANCE"
ftp://ftp.isc.org/pub/usenet/CONFIG/README

Out of curiosity.. does anyone have personal contact
with an ISP or a NSP news admin?


Link to the co. hierarchy:

Sorry "Admin" but lost your message so replying back to the only
one I can see.

Would this person want to be a 'part-time' co.* admin?
Luckily (for any admin) these co.* groups aren't very busy.

It would be an asset and add more authenticity if
a real 'admin' would send the cmsg's, boosters and
rmg messages.  Just a thought.

I ignore trolls and OT posts so not sure whats going on
in this or other co. groups.  I kinda stumbled in and thought
I could add a bit of info from digging around.

I can see the need for a few groups to be removed.  But nowadays
news admins either haven't added some of these in the first
place or a bit too busy to read any removed groups messages and
act upon them.  :(  At least thats what I have read.


Anyhow what are you and/or others trying to accomplish?
I certainly would like to see the co.* hierarchy grow.
But not too many Coloradans use usenet.  I have family
out of state and their local groups are _booming_!

Thanks
