Unfortunately the codewarrior.* newsgroups are not available to
everyone.
In addition we have 12 different embedded products at this moment and
only one embedded newsgroup. So confusion reigns when questions are
asked
Finally, some people have given up on newsgroups because they are now
mined for spam mail.
So we will probably stop the codewarrior.* newsgroups eventually, but we
will continue to monitor them until they are totally gone. We will also
continue to monitor the other newsgroups and list that are of concern to
Metrowerks such as these groups listed here.

This is an additional service and is in no way a decrease of service at
all.
