  The following is a list of currently active USENET newsgroups as of
! 1 September 1986.  There are three basic subcategories of netwide 
! newsgroups:  "net",  "mod" and "talk".  The "talk" category is the
! first part of a co-ordinated renaming of newsgroups being done by the
! "backbone" and associated sites.  Within a few months, the "net"
! distribution will cease to exist, and there will be a set of new
! top-level divisions which will imply organization rather than
! distribution.  The "mod" groups will eventually undergo conversion into
! the same name space.
