Is there a new newsgroup hierarchy for Windows 7?

Does no-body ever SEARCH this group any more? This has been posted and answered HUNDREDS of times in the last few weeks.
The answer is NO.

The official MS Windows 7 forum can be found here:

http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/windows7

I searched the newsgroup hierarchy by downloading the hierarchy from the Microsoft server. Failing to find the hierarchy from the source, I asked the question.

Why would anyone assume that Microsoft was going to stop using USENET when they have thousands of existing groups in their hierarchy?


Note there's no MVPs here anymore. When Vista General was launched, the place was crawling with MVPs. Note that two individuals, Frank and a person who keeps changing his name have totally ruined this group. I doubt very seriously that MS wants them to ruin the Windows 7 groups. Hence, web based and moderated forums from now on.

There are actually still MVPs here though.


The really brown nosing MVPs like Carey are crawling all over the Windows 7 web forums. The ones here are closer to the Dark Side.
