Most of the commercial providers take every newsgroup created by anyone, to the point that recently the names of about 100 of them, when all lined up, spelled "Jerry Garcia." Most corporate servers use a wide variety of filtering mechanisms to screen out superfulous newsgroups and save disk space and processing time. You could either be at a server the new group hasn't yet propogated to, or your server administrator has choasen not to subscribe to the newsgroup. Try sending them eMail and asking for it.
