How does one go about getting Google to archive a given usenet newsgroup?
I was browsing google groups, and was surprised to find that the very
active and useful microsoft newsgroup
microsoft.public.windows.vista.general is nowhere to be found on google
groups even though other Microsoft groups such as this one are being
archived.
With such useful information in that newsgroup, I'd like to see it
available on google groups where folks can then easily search for something
they may have a question about. Anyone know how one might go about getting
microsoft.public.windows.vista.general added to google's list of usenet
newsgroups it archives?
Thanks for any responses.

The usual rule for google groups is patience. Eventually they get around to
adding groups. But I honestly don't know what their process is for when they
add a group.

The 64-bit ng started in April 2005 and Google didn't start archiving until
around August 2005.

I use the Word Wheel in WinMail, but that is if you archive all post.
