Official? What office?

If one considers Usenet as being the Big-8 only (pedantic; and
introducing an unnecessary restriction not in the Question), that's
right, but it is limited.

"not" ... "most news feeds" is unimportant nowadays; even if many
servers ignore news:pl.comp.lang.javascript, you can see it at Google
(but they seem to omit news:no.comp.lang.javascript).

Re 2.7 : microsoft.public.scripting.jscript is not the only Jscript
group, even if those probably not in ~English are disregarded.
