Please do not flame sob@bmc.tmc.edu (Stan Barber).  Besides being the
moderator of comp.sys.concurrent, he has made significant
contributions to the Usenet software (e.g., porting NNTP) and has been
an active, helpful Net citizen for a long time.

Stan posted an article explaining the masscomp-->concurrent newsgroup
name change and explained that it was gone over in the c.s.masscomp
newsgroup.  That article may not have reached your site yet.  I agree
that the rmgroup was somewhat confusing, especially since it issued
from "bmc!usenet" instead of (say) "sob@tmc.edu", but I think the
issue is sufficiently explained at this point (though there is still
the problem of the mailpaths backbone sites).
