   Keith Thompson to All   
   Flood of old articles

   From: Keith.S.Thompson+u@gmail.com   
      
   Today a number of very old articles, from around 2006 to 2010,   
   have been posted on comp.lang.c with new article numbers.   
      
   This is apparently the result of a glitch on eternal-september.org.   
   The openwatcom.* hierarchy had been removed, but it was restored   
   today.  The reposted articles were cross-posted to comp.lang.c and   
   various newsgroups under openwatcom.*.  Similarly, 20 old articles   
   reappeared in comp.std.c.   
      
   There's probably nothing to be done about it.  Just pay attention   
   to the date on any articles before posting followups.
