    ------------------------------

    This report contains all changes to managed newsgroup hierarchies for
    which there are control message processing rules in the control.ctl file
    at:

    <ftp://ftp.isc.org/pub/usenet/CONFIG/control.ctl>

    The control messages are processed according to the rules specified in:

    <ftp://ftp.isc.org/pub/usenet/CONFIG/README>

    "Managed" in the above means that changes to alt.* and free.* are
    specifically excluded from this report (but included in the maintained newsgroup lists) because there is too much churn in those hierarchies and
    too much noise in the report. Similar unmanaged hierarchies may be
    excluded in the future, should they cause similar problems. This report
    will not be modified to include alt.* and free.*, but anyone else who
    wishes could produce a more inclusive report from the log files in:

    <ftp://ftp.isc.org/pub/usenet/CONFIG/LOGS/>

    It is the intent of this archive and report to include every public Usenet hierarchy for which verifiable control messages are sent. If you know of
    a public Usenet hierarchy which is not represented in this report or in
    the Usenet newsgroup lists and have the details on how to validate control messages for that hierarchy, please mail usenet-config@isc.org and let us
    know the details. (If no control messages are being issued for that
    hierarchy, someone should start!)

    More information about Usenet hierarchy maintenance is at:

    If you have any other questions about this report after reading the README
    file mentioned above, please mail usenet-config@isc.org.
