I quote from a recently-posted FAQ on all startrek.com newsgroups: "Star Trek: Continuum began as a joint effort between Paramount Digital Entertainment (a division of Paramount Pictures Corp.) and the Microsoft Network (MSN). STC first started up in the summer of 1996 (exact date?) and was initially available only to members of MSN. The first newsgroups were MSN proprietary groups accessible only via the MSN software. In the spring of 1997, MSN began a migration to NNTP news servers for all online content and the STC groups were among the first to make the move. However, the content of STC was still only available to MSN subscribers. In January of 1998, STC completed a migration to a standalone service available to the general public. STC groups are now maintained on a separate, public NNTP server." Three general messages posted at the time of the move: From: Leslie Wade Newsgroups: msn.onstage.startrek.expert.okrand Date: Friday, January 09, 1998 11:35 AM Subject: Newsgroups have moved!
