Each Usenet site makes its own decisions about the set of groups available
to its users;
this set differs from site to site. (Note that the correct term is
"newsgroups";
they are not called areas, bases, boards, bboards, conferences, round
tables, SIGs, echoes,
rooms or usergroups! Nor, as noted above, are they part of the Internet,
though they may reach your site over it. Furthermore,
the people who run the news systems are called news administrators,
not sysops. If you want to be understood, be accurate. )
