What exactly is this meant to achieve?

To clean up the comp.* hierarchy ... evcen if the 4/5 that are being RFDd right now pass, ppl are going to continue screaming that the other 15-16 should be removed as well ... this way, thos using news.postgresql.org can still get access to the whole hierarchy, while the comp.* would only carry those that are deemed "official"
