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.
