I've joined the FreeBSD-questions mailing group (freefall.cdrom.com) earlier
this week.  I've only received one "burst" from this group of about 15 msgs
a few days back.

How active is this group?

Likewise, I'm having difficulties with trying to create a file structure on
my ESDI drive (has 18 bad spots scattered throughout).  I've posted to 
freebsd-questions@freefall.cdrom.com on Tuesday of this week...haven't seen
anything back yet.  How long does it take from posting to getting something
distributed?  I usually see about 6 hr turn-around when I do the same
thing to the Linux mail groups...
