Well, I can tell you Bob, that my newsgroups are very different. The discussion
is intelligent and on-topic and there are many resources available such as game
database downloads, and coverage of major events. I am a member of 11 newsgroups
on chess alone, and felt there was a need for something different.

Sorry to those who have recieved more than one invitation. The groups are new so
I have been a bit aggressive at first to bring new people in. There are already
94 members in the Chess_Database_Discussion groups alone. I recommend to new
members to select the "daily-digest" option for email preferences so that you
don't get bombarded with too much email.

Thx,

Matthew
