+These are the archives of the newsgroup comp.os.linux.announce.
+
+They're divided up approximately by weeks, as files
+named "uptoYY-MM-DD.whatever".
+
+Each week has three files:
+.keywords.Z     Contains a keywords/subject line index
+.articles.Z     Contains the actual text of all the articles
+.subjects.Z     Contains a subject line index
+
+The indexes have a 5-digit article number in the left-hand column,
+which also appears in the article separators in the main file.
+
+If you have any queries, comments, suggestions or otherwise, please
+let me know immediately. Thanks,
+                           - Ian Jackson <ijackson@nyx.cs.du.edu>
