First I would have to *write* a paper... :-)

I might actually do that for the LISA conference.  But not right away.

Yes and no and kind of.  I oversimplified.  Yes, Ron Gomes's system at
BNR Ottawa was getting Usenet traffic for a little while, before utzoo. 
However, as far as I know, nothing was ever posted from there... and at
the time, the formal criterion for Usenet membership was posting a site
announcement to NET.news.newsite (I think it was), so one can argue about
whether that site really qualified.
