Henry Spencer:
C News treats no distribution as completely equivalent to
"Distribution: world", and this *is* documented.

Rich Salz:
For all intents and purposes, INN treats treats articles without a
Distribution header the same way C News does.  If the article has no
such header, then distribution is NOT limited, so the article should
go everywhere by default.
