Good to know that.

This is totally incorrect. For example,
talk.religion.buddhism still sees posts every few
days. There was a post today, and the most recent reply from
a different user was last month. Another example is
talk.politics.china, which was created in 1993. The
discussions there are in Chinese since 2000 (not spam!) and
the group is still active.

Even with just a quick look, I can already find more
examples, though I cannot speak for all of them. Please
crosspost this proposal to those groups as well. You may
then receive direct feedback from the users there.
