As some of you may be aware, we are about to move to a new newsgroup hierarchy for mozilla.org.

Currently, n.p.m.crypto.checkins still exists in the new hierarchy, as mozilla.dev.tech.crypto.checkins, because in the past I have been told that it is required by US Export Regulations to have some sort of record of crypto code development. However, the same information is available from, and much more accessible in, Bonsai (http://bonsai.mozilla.org).

So, does anyone know the history behind the existence of the group, and whether we still need it given that we have Bonsai?

Please keep the crypto.checkins newsgroup in the new
newsgroup hierarchy.  This newsgroup is both for complying
with US export regulations (a convenient way to report
changes) and for NSS developers' keeping up to date with
our code base.
