Hello!
I have found that several newsGroup tags pointing to http:// resources, so you will find links like "news:http://...". I don't think that it is correct. Some of these resources are web-interfaces to news groups, others internal dmoz pages that cannot be accessed without password and one is a regular dmoz category. I think that newsGroup tags should point only to Usenet resources. And in any case "news:http://..." is not valid link.
Here is incorrect links:
I think that links above should be converted to usual external (or internal) links from newsGroup type.
Thanks.
