Now this new newsgroup is up and running how long does it take for the group to be carried by different Usenet providers? How many start carrying the group at the same time?
I have seen reports of slow uptake by some Usenet providers when new Big8 newsgroups were created. These may not have been real slowness. In one case the delay was due simply to users having to re-download the list of newsgroups.
Partly out of interest and partly to know when it is reasonable to more widely publish the existence of the group can you add a Usenet provider to the list below?
It is meant to show the approximate date of the first post held by that provider - which should be when that provider started carrying the group. So, for example, if you see the group on 11th but the first post is dated
4th the list would show the 4th. Of course, with different timezones the dates people see the first message may vary by one day.2013-04-02 Eternal September
