why not have an Internet Explorer 7 newsgroup?

They do.
It is at msnews.microsoft.com under microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general

They do.
It is at msnews.microsoft.com under microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general

Which is a mixture of general and IE7-specific threads. Better to have
a group (or groups) specifically for IE7.

Hello,

I believe he is asking for a more specific newsgroup for ie7, like

microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie7.browser

since

microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6.browser

covers only ie6

The reason I asked was on this link of the directory of newsgroups at
Microsoft, it doesn't bring up the link you provided.

That would be logical, but these are Microsoft newsgroups, which, at
times, defy logic.

Those with IE7-specific questions or comments are asked to post to and seek
support in this newsgroup: microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general

Thank you Frank for the detail. Still, I would like to see an ie7 dedicated
group.

Thank you Frank for the detail. Still, I would like to see an ie7
dedicated
group.

So would I, but they really want to get down to just the one IE.general
newsgroup. Which I think will cause confusion, but I don't have any say in
it.
