Following the take over of Borland by Embarcadero, the Borland newsgroups were closed at the beginning of August 2008. They have been replaced by Embarcadero newsgroups, and whilst the names of many of the newsgroups have been preserved ("borland" being replaced by "embarcadero") the content from the Borland newsgroups has not been copied across to the new groups.
