Some folks here might remember Usenet... Specifically, some folks here might remember the Usenet anime-announcement group rec.arts.anime.info, and how it went dormant some months before the group's moderator, Steve Pearl, passed away in 2007.
As of today, rec.arts.anime.info has a new moderation team (of two, one of whom is, well, me) and is back in operation.
So I have a favour to ask: If you're still using Usenet and you have any sort of anime-related announcement to make (anime convention announcements, anime FAQs, anime reviews, anime news, and so on), please post that announcement to rec.arts.anime.info as well as wherever you're already posting it. The group needs the content... but it doesn't need any noise.
