Deprecating as in throwing away will be such a waste.

Won’t you please take the time and transfer the existing content
to the new groups…
With the QNX knowledgebase deprecated before it be
really useful, the newsgroups are
about the only thing around constituing
a “community knowledge base”.

As we said in the original message, all the groups will be archived and
available for read, so information will not be lost.

I see two newsgroups missing; the equivalent of “qdn.cafe” where we can
just shoot the breeze, and a QNX 2 newsgroup – surely QNX 2 isn’t
totally dead? :slight_smile:

Thank you for your suggestion Rob. Your observation about the qnx.cafe is a
good one. This newsgroup has served our community well in fostering positive
communications for active members around the globe. We’d be happy to
continue this tradition by maintaining this group. We appreciate your
input.

For read how and where?

I’m thinking that the old articles must be
populated into the new NGs.

Is that what you are saying?

Great! And the QNX 2 newsgroup? If you look through the existing qnx2 newsgroup
you’ll see that there is still some traffic there periodically…

One of my clients still has a few QNX2 sites running (managing ATM’s for
banks & credit unions). They will be replaced during next year (2004).
