Hi,
after some time doing different work I came back to visit the DA
newsgroups. For several days I tried to connect but had no success. I
did not know about the migration. Because DA newsgroups were the first I
tried to connect to I blamed my newsreader programs, my router, my
installation ...
This morning I tried one more time and now i am happy that you are on
the air again and nothing was wrong.
Congratulations from my side.

As I can see from the list of entries in the VDF-group it took about 2
full hours to put all threads in again. You startet at abt 15:34 and
finished at abt 17:38. All messages are dated the same 17.01.05!!
(btw, did not check all groups; dataflex, jobs, opensource are ok)
Would be nice if this can be corrected.

Thanks for all the good work.
Peter Moog

Peter,

From the Data Access newsletter sent out this morning:

>>Please note: due to changes in the location of the Newsgroups, you may
>>need to set your news reader software to find our private news server at
>>"news.dataaccess.com." You will need to again "subscribe" to the
>>newsgroups that interest you, as the newsgroup names and locations have
>>changed. Your reader will then reload the messages in the newsgroups you
>>subscribe to. Due to migration-related issues, the date that messages were
>>originally posted may not be correct for a short period of time (several
>>days). If you do download messages with clearly incorrect dates (all
>>messages dated the same, for instance), please revisit the newsgroup at a
>>later date and reload the messages again. Please note that the "posted"
>>date of each individual message is correct. <<
