It has been the practice to post copies of messages posted to the cs-nameservers-announce mailing list to the local newsgroup ucam.comp.tcp-ip.
The local newsgroups ucam.* are expected to be phased out before long, so I propose that we discontinue this practice. If anyone feels differently, please let us know.
At that time, we received pleas to continue the copies to the ucam.comp.tcp-ip newsgroup for as long as it remained in existence (which has in fact been much longer than was then anticipated). However, its demise now really is imminent, see e.g.
http://ucsnews.csx.cam.ac.uk/articles/2010/03/30/newsgroups-and-bulletin-boards
Therefore I have removed the references to ucam.comp.tcp-ip from the mailing list description and from the sample.named.conf file, and this message will be the last one copied to the newsgroup.
