What I now have, for both ACTIVE.TIMES and NEWSGROUPS, is:

    The file MAY omit newsgroups for which the information is
    unavailable and MAY include groups not available on the server.
    The client MUST NOT assume that the list is complete or that it
    matches the list returned by LIST ACTIVE.
