I was a regular user of this group over the years and learned much of
what I know today from those individuals willing to share their
experience and knowledge. However, I've been away for a year or so
and now find the activity level has significantly reduced. What
happened? Where has everyone gone?

I feel like the address for the party has changed and nobody told
me! :)

Any thoughts?

Regards

Kieran

The address did change and nobody told you because you weren't around.<g>

Microsoft closed down all of their newsgroup servers and expanded their
forums to handle the traffic. This (and other "microsoft" newsgroups) are
the remnants of the original newsgroups that remained because they were
replicated on other news servers (Microsoft could not close them down
because they did not own them). Here is the location for the forums...

Many thanks to all. I will go to the party and walk in backwards to
make it look like I never left! - perhaps looking a little sheepish <g>
