Alt.config are "supposed to" do nothing. We are not a company, we are not
employed or contracted by anyone, we are people who happen to subscribe

worth sending, or point out existing active newsgroups which cover the
topic in question. Both have taken place.

The "Justification" you wrote was not justification.
