That's easier said than done, Michael. If he does it in alt, which
is fairly simple, it will be very poorly propagated. If he wants to
do it in rec, he will have to go through the "new newsgroup" RFD
and voting procedure, which takes a long time and a fair bit of
effort. The Google group is a fairly attractive alternative, and
I believe anybody can in fact play if they just sign up on Google.
