> Usenet can be an archive of last resort for organizational bulletins > when organizations can't/won't archive them No, not really. Not in the way that most people think about an archive. Most news servers have limited retention. Usually somewhere between days and years. But there is usually an upper bound on how long things are retained for. Once you get past retention, then you have the problem of accessing older articles. -- Grant. . . .
