Taken from Ken's recent post (March 27, 2000, "News Server Acceptable
Use Policy"):

Quote:
    The articles on this server are intended to be local. No news
    servers may take a feed from news.povray.org.    The POV-Team
    claims collection copyright on the contents of our news data-
    base. This is not for any commercial purpose,  but to protect
    the quality of peer support offered here. If posts from  this
    server are fed to USENET,  users on USENET will start attemp-
    ting to join in discussions there. However, as news.povray.org
    does not take a feed from USENET, such postings will never be
    seen on this server. We will not take a feed from USENET since
    doing so would cause us to have to take all of the accompanying
    baggage - namely, spam, spam, and more spam.  At no time has
    this server ever accepted a feed for any of the povray groups
    from anywhere else. They are purely local and will remain that
    way.
