Yes, there used to be on the (private) news.mozilla.com server groups
but that server was closed off or Mozilla actually closed off public
access to the server.

Hmm!! Reminds me that I'm typing this reply on a USB-connected Keyboard
connected to my Laptop .... after spilling my Coca-Cola drink onto/into
the internal keyboard. (and NOTE, I typed 'Coca-cola' NOT 'Scotch and
Coca-Cola' (or whatever)!! That's my story and I'm sticking to it!!) ;-)
