Yuurk, that's technical BS !!

What I mean is: is there access to any alternative host which
isn't as restrictive as (closer to Usenet than) the one in use ?

I'm wondering now what the "industry standard" software is
for news hosting and/or whether each service has OEM versions.
At the same time, I haven't the slightest interest :-?
