This is a formal Request for Discussion (RFD) to remove the
following 101 moderated newsgroups. 

When these groups are removed, the history associated with the
contents of the group will disappear.  I do not know how much this
matters. There are cases where someone doing research could use the
information, but it is rare.  But when it's gone, it's gone.

Those groups were mostly unused more than 10 years, most servers won't
carry any articles anymore. The group's history itself can still be
found at the ISC ftp server, all control messages, including
descriptions, can be found there.
