VNC Newsgroup

[Carillon, Mike]

True but the proxy server blocks www.deja.com.  So what do you say to people
who fall into my group, have no access to newsgroups?  So again, If everyone
can receive email and not everyone has access to newsgroups then how would
it be available to a wider audience?

There are non-newsreader routes into newsgroups. For example, www.deja.com

I couldn't find comp.sys.software on deja, though; I assume this would
start a new tree, logical given that everything in comp.sys seems to be
platform specific, and obviously VNC isn't.

Question is, might vnc fit somewhere else ...

regards, Ben.
