Is Oxnet archived?
Yes, thanks to Ganesh Sittampalam: an archive of many high-volume ox.* groups (only available from within .ox.ac.uk) is available at http://munchkin.comlab.ox.ac.uk/ox.archive/ (this archive was previously run by Robin Stevens). ox.colleges.new is archived at http://ocn.new.ox.ac.uk/archive/. Oxnet articles occasionally find their way on to DejaNews. This happens when somebody crossposts between an Oxford newsgroup and an external newsgroup; any replies to the article in the external newsgroup by people outside Oxford will be seen in the local newsgroup.
