Although I don't know if there's a better answer, you have to keep in mind
that this newsgroup is maintained in Japan -- we English-speakers just
hijacked it! So any information might be in those "about this Newsgroup"
autopostings that go around every once in a while. I ran one through the
Google translator much, but it didn't do too much good.

Luckily there doesn't seem to be too much spam. I think the spammers have
largely abandoned most non- alt.sex.* newsgroups.
