I lost some because Google returns news:alt.os.free_dos instead of
news:alt.os.free-dos which is much more active. Maybe a regularly
posted FAQ on these two newsgroups (and also on
news:comp.os.msdos.misc ) and making clear some basic points would be
helpful. We just need to agree on a text and a volunteer to post it
every month or so.

You still have the choice:
nntp://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.freedos.general , that's
why I think that gmane is really *wonderful* :)

The "sex-appeal" and efficiency seem to be two very different things...
