    i've never used mixmin's newsserver for posting, but while it's still available that active link shows 39371 y /5812 m /6 n, 45189 in total,
    and not only plaintext newsgroups, since "alt.binaries.*" for example,
    shows 2567 y /50 m, 2617 total (low retention, neodome is more active)

    it does seem odd that no announcement has been made about the sysop's whereabouts for three months and counting (steve crook, zax, is world
    famous in the anonymous remailer community) . . . another well-known
    sysop whose unexpected departure was confirmed thom miller, retro guy
    of novabbs and i2pn2 (rocksolid) news servers, their announcement was
    made and confirmed within a couple of days . . . but three months and
    not a peep from anyone anywhere? that's mighty "damn peculiar"jtk/lhm
