NO! and for two VERY GOOD REASONS!!

1. the naming used for these other newsgroups was childish and self-centered around the 'newsgroup elete' perspective - instead of being centered around the Oracle practioner perspective (the CUSTOMERS of the newsgroups) [in other words, the names might make sense to those who frequently read an post in News.Groups - but not to the Oracle DBA who just wants to get an answer on a strange error code]
2. my ISP doesn't carry the new newsgroups

I am sure that those who thought up this Oracle newsgroup split thought they were naming things correctly - well, the proof of the pudding is in the eating!

Let the usage of the new Oracle newsgroups proove me wrong or proove me right.
