From install.mn:

          7.7.  Distributions

               News 2.11 is much more particular about  handling  distribu-
          tions  than  previous versions. In particular, make sure that you
          have the distribution world in every line of your sys file unless
          you  are  specifically limiting the distribution and are sure you
          know what you are doing.


That's pretty clear to me.
