News swervers

Anyone use a decent free news server. I've signed up to the Berlin one
but have not had confirmation yet.

NTL keeps dropping messages more regularly than a £50 whore doing a
happy hour special :-)

IIRC, I think its done manually, so wait till Monday. Hang in there, it
really is the best of the free, IMO.

I use this one for binary fills, get a free account. I don't use it often as
I'm with blueyonder on 2mb and 256k a sec of there news server ;oP

He could use his NTL account for posting.
Astraweb doesnt have a particularly long retention date, but is pretty much
complete. For free you cant grumble, and you can sign up with multiple
accounts, so when your 1st uses up its 50meg, jump onto the 2nd :-)
