Bob, why do you think there are not too many European sites on USENET.
I believe this is a strong prejudice! The procedure you suggest
(submission to rutgers!aramis.rutgers.edu!webber and (well, almost)
automatic resubmission to the appropriate newsgroup sounds good.
However, point 3 of the list of details may lead to the strange effect
that postings submitted from Europe would never reach European sites
again (right?). I suggest to leave it up to the postings' authors
whether "Distribution: usa" or "Distribution: world" is assumed, or at
least let it depend on the status of the group one is posting to.
I don't know how other people on the net feel about this issue, so I'd
like to hear of other opinions.
