## LOCAL (*RESERVED* -- Local-only groups)
#
# Historically reserved for local groups and occasionally configured for
# such groups in news software.  It is not really a good idea for sites
# to use this hierarchy for local groups, since they may occur on many
# unconnected sites and may confuse news readers that read at multiple
# sites.
#
# This name occurs at many sites for their own local hierarchies.
# Distributing a hierarchy by this name off of a single server is a very
# bad idea because of the high likelihood of leakage between the unrelated
# groups of different sites.
