You--and you alone--post a message to biz.config stating your
intention to create a new BIZ group (that's BIZ, as in "the ONLY
appropriate place for blatently commercial postings") with some
reasonable name like biz.next.newprod.  Wait a few days.  Issue
a formal newgroup if there are no objections.  Announce the
establishment of the new group in c.s.n.a, but advise people not
to post to it for a few more days to give news administrators
time to ensure its propagation.

You'll have your group in no time flat, and those of us who value
c.s.n.* for useful information content will appreciate having
"our" newsgroups back.
