I see a lot of non VCD compliant material posted in the VCD group, how long is that going to continue?
The acceptance of SVCD media in the VCD group has been tolerated with the expressed understanding that someone would create alt.binaries.vcd.svcd or get the misplaced alt.binaries.svcd chartered. Once created the SVCD’s would move out of the group completely and no longer be accepted in the VCD group. This was set forth approximately January of 2001, the group at large (TradeR, Viper69, me, Beegs, Lowen Taulman, Storm Seed, Automan, Kremen, Cyber (freakin), The Dude, Ragz, Popernicle, Flickboy, Astroboy, Just me, Spacey, Longo, Vidguy) among others where present in the group and active when this was discussed in length on January 2001. As of the writing of this latest FAQ update (V5), SVCD’s (and other non VCD-compliant material) in alt.binaries.vcd is understood to be immediately migrated to the appropriate newsgroups. All crossposts between alt.binaries.vcd and any other newsgroups shall cease no later than MAY 01, 2002. It’s now time that the non VCD-compliant material is on its way
