Google's stated policy is not to single out authoritative news servers for hierarchies like perl.*. Instead, they rely on enough news admins adding particular groups to allow the news to make it to whatever servers they do actually follow. And even then, they are selective about what groups they will publish. If they actually stick to this policy, the term "brainless oiks" comes to mind.
