    Somewhere there must be a bunch of information that never,
make it to us! (-: Many is the time I read an article saying
something like: The brand-new xxx is now posted to net.sources.
And I hopefully look in net.sources only to get disappointed,
when I realize that only announcements of postings to
net.sources and other related articles is there... [Hrrrmff!]

    It seems like articles sent to net.sources from outside
Europe never gets here, but it seems like they get the stuff in
Sweden (at least I heard some talk from them about sources for
FORTH.) My question is: Is this stuff send to us ?

Well, it wouldn't have been necessary to post that to "net"; "eunet"
would have done. But I think it's best now to post the answer to "net"
as well.
The reason is simple: on diku's request mcvax has limited the number
of newsgroups forwarded to them; net.sources is NOT included therein!
You'll have to arrange this with diku!keld, then I can add net.sources
to the list.
