Any Visual J++ developer communitites?

[J. V.]

I'm trying to find online newsgroups/discussion areas devoted
to Visual J++. I realize that Microsoft and Visual J++ are
not viewed kindly in the Java world but I have real world
constraints and development environments are one of them.

Microsoft no longer supports J++... Their new attempt is named C# with .net

Microsoft has a J++ newsgroup on its server: microsoft.public.java.visualj++
plus others for specialized topics. However, it seems to me that MS developers
have stopped posting responses in these groups and they are pretty dead.
I think over 80% of posts don't get a response. If you can update to .NET,
the J# newsgroupd seem to be very lively (J# is MS upgrade for J++ and it's
meant to run on the .NET platform, I'm not even sure whether it compiles
to the VM anymore.)
If you find any better groups, please let me know.
