    Or is google groups up the creek? I only just see posts from the 25th
    and nothing newer.

    Usenent seemed to have a wobbly last night.

    I was logged onto 3 different servers. Cheesy and Virgin's two efforts.
    They updated at different times and many posts did not appear on one or the
    other.

    Seems to be working on all 3 this morning.

    And me, Google groups is still only showing post up to 25th. I have had to
    download Xnews to read and post this.

    Nope. Though I did see the number of posts from the 25th slowly
    increase during the afternoon. Oh, the excitement.

    Google Groups did not appear to be
    receiving Usenet messages from about
    2am on Sat to midday Monday UK time.
    There was a brief recovery on Sat but it did
    not seem to last long enough to catch up.

    It broke in a similar way on the weekend of the 5 Oct.

    This is the google "help" group - which does not
    seem to be read by google.
    http://groups.google.com/group/Is-Something-Broken/topics

    Guess its time to give up on it.

    Does maye one wonder what else they might
    just quietly abandon if it suits them.

  9. Bizarrely, on Monday every post that frag made on the 19th suddenly
    appeared all at once.

    That was my fault, re-installed Gravity and cocked up the configuration.

    Realised what I'd done a few days later and managed to post all the
    articles that had gotten stuck :)

    Just for you, I've kick started the consumer lead, spending recovery by
    slashing out ?10 and I've changed newsreader to boot.

  13. Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, Cane
    Christ, there goes the neighbourhood.

    Welcome to the Teutonic Side, Brother Cane[1].

    [1] At first typing, this came out as "Bother Cane". I was going to
    leave it, but it conjured up unspeakable mental images[2].
    [2] Hey, why should I suffer alone?

    I used to use it years ago, even before they charged. The one day I
    forgot to renew, couldn't be arsed and switched to Google... it all
    went down hil from there TBH.
    heh, very little bothers me these days.
