I wasn't sure of which FAQ Yves meant, but esperanto/spamo says:
The status of the esperanto/spamo posting is as follows:

It was last posted on or around 1999/12/16.
It will be posted again on or around 2000/02/15.

and, at my site, the following has appeared (trn output):

The megaposting on Dec 15 claims to have posted Nat's FAQs:

Article <nude-faq/part3_945115279@rtfm.mit.edu> posted successfully.
and from the server's status information:
The status of the nude-faq/part1 posting is as follows:

It was last posted on or around 1999/12/13.
It will be posted again on or around 2000/01/12.

However the most recent posting to reach my site is from Nov 11, so there
would appear to still be a problem of some sort. I'm not sure how post_faq.pl
could believe things were posted successfully if they weren't, unless inews
was somehow lying about what it was doing.
