QNX NEWSGROUPS ----- THAT'S A MESS -----

[Alain Bonnefoy]

Hi,
Since the beginning of the year there is a big problem about our newsgroups.
When we ask a question, nobody answers and when we look at inn.qnx.com
we can see messages posted this new year in, for example,
qdn.public.qnxrtp.os, qnx.rtos, qdn.public.neutrino.

Could you please make a clean in inn.qnx.com, advise once again
everybody about what are the NEW newsgroups and deleting the obsolete ones!!

Thanks for your understanding,

Sorry for the crossposting, but now I really don't know who is
listenning what!!!!!

Alain.

As I mentioned in one of my posts, without QSS disabling those
old groups, people will just keep posting in them ...
Apparently, that went to the deaf ears
Hope they will take your suggestion this time

As a member of the QNX Community, we would like to inform you about some

upcoming changes to the QNX Public Newsgroups.



As a result of the launch of the new QNX Website mid-month, the QNX Public

Newsgroups will be streamlined to create a better framework for sharing,

managing and accessing information. Here's a sneak peak at the list of new

newsgroups that will be created at <news://inn.qnx.com/>:





qnx.newuser - Installation, configuration and administration of the QNX

Neutrino or QNX Momentics environments



qnx.rtos - Writing resources managers, and general discussion around

the QNX Neutrino RTOS



qnx.gui - Creating graphical applications within a GUI environment, such

as Photon or PhAB



qnx.development_tools - Self-hosted graphical development with the

Eclipse IDE and cross-hosted development on Solaris, Linux, or Windows



qnx.ddk - Writing device drivers for scanners, video card, optical

mouse, etc



qnx.porting - Discuss migrating applications from QNX4, VxWorks, PSOS,

or Linux to QNX Neutrino



qnx.bsp - Discuss building an image, flashing a board or using a BSP



qnx.qnx4 - General QNX4 Discussion Group



qnx.3rdparty_product_announcements



Existing qdn.public newsgroups will be deprecated before the end of 2003.

However, for your convenience, these newsgroups will still be available

in a read-only archive.



If you have any questions, send email to newsgroup_admin@qnx.com

Nope - you can't post into a read-only group.

Yeah. It is called "proof by repeated assertion".
I wonder about that "launch of the new QNX Website mid-month". What month?
And year?
