That is the long term plan Bassam.

The majority of folk now use the web interface.

Sometime between now and the 1st October it will be gone. There hasn't been
an update post yet with a confirmed date as far as I can see, but all NNTP
access will be gone as of the 1st October.

It will still be available via news servers that don't honor the "delete"
request. Your ISP's news server might be one of them, and there are free
news servers that will still offer it. I still subscribe to some of the
"cancelled" newsgroups in that manner. Just because msnews drops them
doesn't mean they will be inaccessible.

haven't any problems with it
