This is an automated report about activity of our newsgroup
comp.os.linux.announce. It covers period between the 
previous report and the current one, ending 
on Mon Apr 12 00:05:01 CDT 2004.

Note that we do not report the number of articles cancelled
after they got approved, because the cancellations are done
manually. Typically messages get cancelled by requests of
posters themselves.

Lastly, the statistics below are skewed towards higher numbers because
there are always some test messages from moderators themselves who
approve and reject them to make sure that our robomoderator functions
properly.
