It has the advantage of allowing images to be posted, etc.

Although you don't appear to be able to even preview the group prior
to deciding if you want to join it...

Anyone on it worth reading that we know?


Yes. John Rumm has just joined ! :-)


The 13th user it seems :-)

Am I missing a big archive of discussion somewhere or are there really
only 8 posts in total?


This is a new group. It's only been in existence for a matter of days.

Yup, had not appreciated that... Not being a great fan of web based
fora, the main attraction would have been either contact with some old
names from the past, or an injection of new and interesting ones.

(that and I have no real problem with usenet, once armed with adequate
filters!)
