Hi,
Since October I have posted the TV listings for the UK to uk.media.tv.simpsons and alt.tv.simpsons. However, in recent weeks, there has been a distinct lack of interest in these posts, and when I accidentally didn't post it to the newsgroups two weeks ago, no-one noticed.
For this reason, and as it is also hosted as a webpage at www.snpp.com/upcoming/uk.html, I have decided not to post any further updates to Usenet.
Cheers,
David McCormick

I thought you were on holiday or something.
I assume you'll still post on other subjects though?

This is a reply to the original post, not Pauls, I don't have the original for some (BT) reason.
Lack of interest can't really be measured by number of replies. I always read your listings update - its very informative, and keeps me up to date on what Sky and BBC are doing rights wise. I rarely have any response to the posts, but don't think it wasn't appreciated cos it was.

That's likely because I posted by Google Groups - these don't necessarily feed to all servers...
Don't worry. It can still be read on the webpage at www.snpp.com/upcoming/uk.html, which has just been updated with the latest edition. Surely you would prefer to read a webpage than a plaintext usenet post?

But if it's on the newsgroup, I can read it by clicking "next message" instead of having to go to a different site. I live in the USA...but I read your posts to find out when the Flaming Moe's / Aerosmith episode airs so I can pass that info on to alt.rock-n-roll.aerosmith.

post?
In all honesty, no. On Usenet it appears. On the web I have to remember to navigate to it. Still, its your choice :)

Plus I can read it at leisure, off-line.

No, I just forgot: it did go on the web.
Yes, yes. It was because I have to post through Google Groups, since my server no longer accepts posts, and that's awkward.

Have you thought about the free newsserver at <http://news.fu-berlin.de/>? I use it to fetch my Usenet articles, and it works well for me. (I don't send posts through it since it apparently wants one's real email address, and I don't like giving that out. I get enough spam to my other email address!)

Please continue these posts, David - they are invaluable sources as I'm sure we'll all agree. Perhaps we've all been guilty of taking them for granted - but please don't think this points to our lack of appreciation :-)
