As explained at http://www.itconsult.co.uk/stamper/stampnew.htm they
moved to alt.security.pgp in 2002. But ... the latest timestamp
summary I can see there is from May 2009, so I guess the point stands,
unless it's just google groups that won't cooperate. (Hmmm, my news
server doesn't even carry alt.security.gpg, so I can't check further.
Not a good sign.)
