As the manager/initiator of the PC reorganisation
that created comp.os.msdos.programmer, I feel that
why we have alt.msdos.programmer as well as the above
group.

Any group in alt.* is not part of the official USENET,
while groups in comp, sci, soc, talk, news, and rec are
in USENET proper.  Many sites don't get ALTnet and when
the reorganisation happened it was felt that a regular
MS-DOS programmer group was needed.  Someone on ALTnet
would have to rmgroup the ALT.* group since it isn't
part of USENET.  The topics for discussion are identical
and I hope that the ALTnet folks will eventually remove
their group now that an equivalent USENET group with
better distribution has been created.
