 Kai> Is this particular group in more than one topic?

It is only in one topic. I believe this topic parameter is not having
the desired effect. If I set expiry-wait in the group parameters it
has an effect, however setting it in the topic parameters does not
work. I checked the summary for another group in the same topic and it
has articles dating back to 16 Jan:

O   16-Jan [Carolyn Metzler     ] Re: \qed
OA  17-Jan [saumil t            ] Re: happy nyr!
O   18-Jan     [-> saumil t         ] 

How does one debug this?
