All,

I am pleased to report that progress has been made on restoring the news
server.

Mark O. has managed to recover the setup and news archives information
from the old server drives. He has also started work on configuring the
new news server.

We hope to have the news mirror functionality operational as soon as
possible, we thank you for your patience.

P.S. One benefit of the new news server setup (we've updated the
software) is that it will be easier for us add additional list to the
news mirror.

Accordingly, I would like to extend to all (Firebird related) list
***moderators*** the opportunity to have your lists mirrored on the news
server -- please contact me privately to discuss.
