The last upgrade was a major replacement of the customer facing news 
servers. They started from scratch, not attempting to get them in sync 
with the old servers. This means that the article numbers restarted. 
I'm pretty sure this is the only renumber that Demon have done this 
year so your other one must have been a funny.

Also you can't be in demon.announce, as they highlighted this "feature" 
of the news server upgrade several times and gave basic instructions on 
what to do. Demon.annouce is very low volume, 3 or 4 articles a week, 
and does give useful information about the status of Demon and any 
planned outages/problems.
