A new "checkgroups" message and list of moderators, plus the other
goodies, will all be posted very early Friday morning.  I might
have posted one earlier, but I've been busy, mostly responding to
flames and requests for clarification.

The "checkgroups" and "moderators" lists will show all the new "mod"
groups as per the lists I've gotten from Erik Fair (he is setting
up the software and the gateways).  The lists will not contain any
of the "fa" groups.  The lists will not contain either net.bizarre
or net.internat.  As far as I am concerned, that currently
represents the "official" state of the newsgroups.

I am hoping that we will be able to add a "mod.std.international"
to the the list soon, but that debate is still going on.
