Notes:

The FGL column indicates the moderated status of the group using
the active file flags of B News, C News and INN.  "y" is unmoderated,
"m" is moderated.

The DATE column is in MMDD (Month Day) notation.

The INFO CONTACT is the address of the person who sent the create /
remove control message.

This article is based almost entirely on the control messages received
at UUNET.  It does not indicate new hierarchies that UUNET is
carrying, just new groups created within existing hierarchies.  The
morass of alt.* is excluded from this list.

USENET groups --- those in the seven hierarchies of comp, misc, news,
rec, sci, soc and talk --- are covered in a separate article entitled
``New USENET Groups''.

Groups stay in these lists for one month past their change in status.
The descriptions are arranged chronologically rather than
alphabetically to make maintenance easier for me.

Corrections or other input on the format of this article is welcome.
