Failed. Alt.test and the other dozens of group for this type of thing are over ----> that way.

Test failed: it landed in rec.woodworking instead of in alt.test where it belonged.

In general I agree with this. But I feel that the occasional test to a group like this is needed. I have feeds where some groups worked and others not.

That'll _only_ be the case if there's a moderated vs. unmoderated situation. The newsfeed is completely group-agnostic, it's an all or nothing situation. If it seems flaky for one group, it's just flaky.
Of course, posting a real message and treating it as your test message seems to escape many people.
So, I should welcome his dog crapping in my yard because I know him, is that it?
alt.test was devised long before I got here, Joe, and long before you as well, I'd suspect. The problems reasons were equally valid then as they are now.
