Mozilla will have a new newsgroup server, and a new newsgroup hierarchy. One of the biggest decisions in the process is deciding whether or not the newsgroups should be on usenet. For what it is worth, that decision was made some time ago; but since no-one from the Foundation has announced it publicly, I won’t either.
I would love to know what the majority of people want the decision to be. From what I’ve read so far there appears to be no clear preference for usenet provider.

well, if the groups are not on Usenet, they won’t be on Google Groups either then?
As Gerv said, “If it ended up that they were not available through Google Groups, we would make sure that they were available over HTTP some way or other. We realise this ability is very important to people.“
