Great Renaming

|
n. The flag day in 1987 on which all of the non-local groups on the Usenet
|
|
had their names changed from the net.- format to the current
|
|
multiple-hierarchies scheme. Used esp. in discussing the history of
|
|
newsgroup names. The oldest sources group is comp.sources.misc ; before the
|
|
Great Renaming, it was net.sources. There is a Great Renaming FAQ on the
|
|
Web.
