Is dk.* only distributed in Denmark?
If no: It might be much more difficult to persuade a news
administrator in, say, the USA to create this group, especially if
s/he does not run INN but a server that fails to handle such
groups completly.
If yes: Do you think that gating the group to mailing lists will
work?
