Author: keramida Date: Mon Mar 4 20:03:17 2013 New Revision: 41092 URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/doc/41092 Log: Revert parts of r40985 for Usenet groups that are still alive. comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc still gets traffic, even if at a reduced level, and comp.unix.questions is pretty alive too. But instead of reverting the changes and listing them in two places, one paragraph now talks about both Usenet groups.
