  comp.binaries.os2 status:
     1) All USENET binaries groups must be moderated.  
        It is a USENET rule.
     2) No one has said they are willing to moderate the group
     3) Posting binaries in comp.os.os2 is rude.

  Proposal:
    There CAN be an unmoderated OS/2 binaries group as long as it
  isn't in regular USENET.  If anyone who really wants such a group
  can talk their news administrator into issuing a "newgroup" command
  with Distribution: alt, a group named  ALT.BINARIES.OS2 can be
  created and used.


  A quick reminder that sources postings should be made to comp.sources.misc
  so that they will be automatically archived and so that they don't overwhelm
  the smaller UUCP sites that can't afford such large postings.  The moderator
  of comp.sources.misc has explicitly stated that he will accept OS/2 
  postings.

  I am still looking for a moderator for comp.binaries.os2, but if no one
volunteers then the group won't happen.
