Two root servers are actually running on completely independent lines:
The third root server for private communities is running selective and is not available to the public.
Please visit the newsgroup: mynews.config - there you find actual lists for general audience.
Adult groups are not visible here. Please visit the Usenet newsgroups. The supported groups contain periodical announcements.
Version 1.2 is running but outdated, Version 1.5 had the bug that online registration didnot work, Version 1.6 is the actual release.
There are no public servers yet, but you can see the actual
status on the first root server at this URL with your WebBrowser:
http://root.winews.net:81/public
Your own server becomes visible here in this public list if you add the community public to your community list.
