ShakataGaNai recently discovered that it appears we
are no longer
being syndicated by google news as of september 16. Anyways, thought
i'd mail the list in case people are wondering why we dissapeared off
google news.
The cause appears to be do to changes in mediawiki, giving the
googlebot the noindex flag. See
