Howdy general message postal service, grin!

Yes, I know that the IT OS/2 Newsgroup is posted into the Fido BBS OS/2 groups here as copy too. Thus I do know that someone who has access to the OS/2 News Groups has access to them.

Yes, I had access to all of them via my Suddenlink IT service. And very frankly, Suddenlink has been a TREASURE of a service to me for many years here in the TAMU College Station and Bryan, Texas area with their cable service. Which is now even going heavily forward to fiber optic service and WAY upward to 50GB service! I have actually worked very closely with them on security research and other things. So the next comment is not at all a negative remark
on them.

Recently for internal reasons that I do have contact about, Suddenlink dropped their actual Internal News Group service for their users. You can still use their technology to connect to whatever newsgroup you seem to want.
However they don't perform as a Newsgroup service group now. Bye-bye went my entire OS/2 Newsgroup Access although I still have complete access to the actual Firefox and Seamonkey OS/2 development operations with no problem for example.

Can anyone here tell ne where I can connect to a complete connection server site for the OS/2 groups? Hopefully for free? From what I think may be correct, it looks like the entire OS/2 Newsgroup operation may be available with access to the MIT Technology school. But they focus on MIT student interface support. Which I think I could subscribe to as an 'external' connection to that source. However before I go there, is there anyone here that can comment here? For all those years back to even the start of OS/2 with
IBM I was a completely paid developer support operation with them. However OS/2
has spun down in the dwindle of all that for what is 'normally' still related to OS/2 with IBM as I think I understand things.

Yes, this still can be a Fido BBS issue as sometimes very important OS/2 comments that are present in the 'formal' developers news areas are of serious value as copied to the Fido BBS operations. So I think this is a valid subject
when posted here.

Thanks!

Well, if you don't mind accessing them through an old-school BBS interface, I carry them on my BBS at winserver.us, but a free account is required. You can sign up via telnet to winserver.us. Once you dign up, you can grab the OS/2 newsgroups from me that way or via the BBS' web interface. If need be, I can fire up the NNTP daemon for the BBS if you wish to access the newsgroups and my
other networked message areas that way.
