This is the original winemaking newsgroup, it's been around for close
to 15 years. To be honest, it's not only spawned a lot of other
groups but most questions have been asked and answered many times.
The groups was much more active years ago, but that is where a lot of
questions got answered. I might be willing to bet there are close to
a thousand posts on cleaning/ removing labels from bottles for
example. There really aren't that many ways to do that and I can
guarantee all of them have already been explored here.

I'm not saying it's outlived it's usefulness, just that there are
other groups out there now answering all these questions, again. So
'dilution' is occurring...
