Did any more of you get an email about the News.Individual.NET starting to
charge for their service:


effective from April 1th, 2005, use of News.Individual.NET will
not be free of charge anymore. The news service will continue as
a fee-based service.............

Important notes:
Effective from April 1th, 2005, all non-converted accounts will stop
working.

Users who use the server News.CIS.DFN.DE as part of the DFNNetNews
project are not effected by the changes described above. Nothing will
change for these users, they do not need to do anything.

Yes, I got one today but have not read it properly yet. I had been
spending a lot of time on the BBC talk garden group and when I came to
use my Free Agent (the best news reader) I found it was not possible.
I asked CIS.DFN about it and what had changed and was invited to sign
up for News.Individual.Net.
