It's rather more than that: comp.binaries.newton is disappearing
entirely, not just from a single news server. I've seen similar
posts regarding many other defunct groups over the last few
months - it's just a tidying up excerise.
As for what effect it will have, for all intents and purposes,
none. People don't use newsgroups to distribute software
anymore, which is why the group was selected for removal.
