This is an error message from Google Groups, when I attempt to post a message to newsgroup mozilla.education.

I suspect that the issue is on our side.

Nope, error's on Google's end.  This newsgroup no longer exists; Google should be displaying it as an "archived" newsgroup and not allow posting.

Ah, ok.
We will probably need that newsgroup in the near future. How can we get it reopened?

[Dave Miller [:justdave] ([e-mail])]

If you want it reopened that goes back to Gerv....

Group deletion happened on bug 724564.

Humph: can you weigh in here, as the person who asked for the original deletion?

Yoric: what do you want to use it for?

Gerv: We are attempting to resume the activities of Mozilla Education and we need a medium for discussing and archiving conversations, so mozilla.education seems like the right place to do so.

:Yoric: this bug is sidetracked. Head over here:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/form.mozlist
and submit a new one for creating mozilla.education and let's get it done.
