Good news, I have finally taken the time to integrate that great work
from Russ and tale here:
http://usenet.trigofacile.com/hierarchies/notes-about-hierarchies.html
The notes are also added in the web page of hierarchies listed in
control.ctl or with newsgroups in the
ftp.isc.org newsgroups file.
(These are the ones with an active hyperlink in the above URL.)
I've rewritten the notes at the third person (using "tale" instead of
"I") for better clarity out of context.
The resulting text file is here:
https://github.com/Julien-Elie/usenet-hierarchies/blob/main/website/data/hierarchy-notes.txt
Naturally, if anyone has suggestions of additions now or anytime in the
future, just drop a note here and I'll happily update the notes.
I'll integrate soon the latest information provided by Adam and Thomas
about mod.* and de.alt.* so as to keep a trace.
And the information I have for microsoft.*, fr.* and france.* too.
Incidentally, I have a question about a sentence from the initial file:
"it would be good to extract the information in here about private and
defunct hierarchies and combine it with the hierarchies FAQ". Which FAQ
is it? I don't think it is the Hierarchy Administration FAQ. Is this
FAQ still posted somewhere in a newsgroup, or available at a URL?
Another question: I do not understand the wording "According to Alan
somebody in mail to me". Has anyone a clue of the intended meaning?
Would it be "According to Alan, somebody who emailed me"?
