     Originally our main feed was yunexus however a while ago, there was a small
problem with smoke in the computer room there. This meant that yunexus became
somewhat unreliable for most of the holiday season. At this time we set up a 
full feed to jtsv16 (it had been only local groups up to that time) and 
afterwards left it as a redundant feed. Additionally the traffic to yunexus
was also restricted (to non-jtsv16 articles) because it seemed to be heavily
loaded with news traffic and an additional redundant inbound feed seemed 
unnecessary. 
    I anticipated that the news re-organization would change things later anyway
so I did not worry about the issue further. Since this has not happened, geac
is prepared to arrange redundant feeds to Trailblazer sites in order to provide 
a backup for the regular feeds. If you are interested send me mail to work out 
the details.
