Introduction to europa.intro+faq
================================

"europa.intro+faq" is a moderated Newsgroup, where articles for new
participants of the europa-hierarchy are regularly posted by the
europa.* Steering Group. These articles are also intended to help system
administrators, to become familiar with this hierarchy.

This article will be posted weekly, to ensure, that newcomers to this
hierarchy will see this text, when they pull articles for the first
time. Experienced users can set a filter on the Subject of this article
(including date!), to make sure, that they'll see this article only,
after it has changed.

For Tests of freshly installed news-software, please use the group
"europa.test".

Should the group "europa.intro+faq" be nearly empty, you can find the
articles of "europa.intro+faq" in the "World Wide Web" (WWW) under the
following URL:

http://www.europa.usenet.eu.org/faq/

Since the respective articles contain the "Expires:"-header, the
current articles should be kept on your server for a longer time
period, as long as there aren't any refreshpostings issued. Good
administrators have adjusted their news-system for this case. For
the news-software INN (Unix) a suitable entry in the configuration
file "expire.ctl" should look like this:

europa.intro+faq:M:1:100:never
