I've forwarded H. Peter Anvin's original announcment of the shutdown to
debian-devel on Fri, 4 Apr 1997 09:40:08 +0200 under subject "End of
linux.* mail <-> news gateway". It is available from the mailing lists
archives on www.debian.org (currently as
http://www.debian.org/Lists-Archives/debian-devel-9704/msg00034.html).

HTH,
