Dear all,
Usenet, and in particular its Big-8 hierarchy and the Big-8 Management
Board, have been covered in two recent articles in the tech press:
* "USENET, the OG social network, rises again like a text-only phoenix"
by Liam Proven (The Register, 2023-08-30):
https://www.theregister.com/2023/08/30/usenet_revival/
* "Usenet is still alive, and the Big-8 Board is managing things again"
by Alfonso Maruccia (TechSpot, 2023-08-31):
https://www.techspot.com/news/99987-usenet-alive-big-8-board-managing-things-again.html
Regards,
Tristan
