The above post may be an attempt to build trafffic on an otherwise
low traffic group. A Google search shows 651 threads and 2020 posts
since 5 Feb 2002, but the posts were not screened for relevence. This
is ~3 posts/day. The group is listed with the ISC and is in one of the
'big eight' hierarchies, so it definitely is not a rogue group and
appears to have been legitimately created, with sufficient
justification to pass vote at the time of its genesis.
SAH was definitely chartered as on-topic at the time of alt.sci.seti's
(Can I use the acronym ASS?) creation, and, the n/g appears to have
been created with the understanding SAH would be a significant
component of the group's b/w, while leaving the possibility of
spawning a SAH specific n/g if conflict arose.
Maybe the real question is do some of the posts here really need to be
cross posted? While they have to do with seti, the isues with boinc may
also be distributed computing related.
