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.
