In an announcement on Giganews website, Giganews will sponsor access to the Mozilla Foundation’s Usenet newsgroups hierarchy.From the announcment:

“The Mozilla Foundation was created to support the development of the best quality software and services to people looking for innovation and choice on the Internet. We know that the Mozilla community has high expectations of us, and we felt that choosing Giganews to host our Usenet capabilities would allow us to continue to adhere to our high standards and offer an excellent service to our developers and other members of our community,” detailed Frank Hecker, Director of Policy at the Mozilla Foundation, when asked about the partnership with Giganews.

Jonah Yokubaitis, CEO of Giganews, says, “The Giganews and Mozilla partnership is a natural fit and we’re glad to offer this free service to their valued developer network. Mozilla’s reputation for developing some of the Internet’s leading browser and e-mail applications has attracted the same type of customers who demand the high quality Usenet service that Giganews provides.”

Anything that helps and supports the Mozilla Foundation is good in my books.
