It has come to my attention from a few people that the Usenet gateway to
'comp.dcom.telecom' has been acting funny for a few days; or to be more
precise, nothing has been moving through there since around September 28.
It may not be the gateway, but some machine in the middle somewhere.

I've sent a note to Chip Rosenthal asking for advice on this. Ordinarily
the gateway sends an automatic receipt to me as notification when an issue
of the Digest is processed. I received no notices over the weekend,
and today a few people said the group was pretty barren of new stuff since
last Friday.

I assume we will get reconnected eventually, and the poor Usenet people
will get 60-100 messages all at once! Then of course, I will get swamped
with incoming mail (from them) in the queue later this week. Such is life!
