Since this is the last note in the conference, why not just delete
the whole thing and be done with it?

The author posted Note 874.0 -- including the Notes header --
to alt.digital.dcu
(news:9409021654.AA23581@us4rmc.pko.dec.com for those using a
web reader).

| re: .2, Why not just delete the whole thing?
Because if I did, one of three things would happen:
1) Someone would ask what happened to the note.
2) Someone would accuse the moderators of being 'Goderators'.
3) Both of the above.

Is this something done to a particular news server, or is it
something that propagates and may execute on all servers?
Does it require special privilege?
By the way, mrnews.mro.dec.com still appears to have the
group.

| Yep, it was blown away from my at-home server, too. Can someone send
out a "create" message ?
This kinda stuff must happen all the time in the I-Way.

| Ask your news server admin to recreate it.
Someone posts a rmgroup control message, it propogates to all news servers.
Each news server has control over what they do with it. Some believe them,
some don't.

Isn't that alt.hackers?
It's a moderated newsgroup with a non-existent moderator, so in order
to post to it you have to forge a moderator approval for your post.
