Sylvain, I can see your message on my ncf news server, no need to use google. I use google to communicate with the us.* hierarchy since my news server does not carry it at all. Last I saw, Chris Lewis was trying to organize the can.* hierarchy, but Chris is either way too busy nowadays, or lost interest, judging from his very sparse participation in ott.config where he is the chairman of ONAG, the body which approves new groups for ott.* Chris Lewis works (or used to work, not sure) for Nortel as a news admin. Nortel is no longer carrying ott.* groups. Whether that has anything to do with Chris Lewis is anybody's guess. I assume you know Nortel has shed close to 70% of its workforce and those who are still there are under quite a lot of stress.
