This isn't exactly new but I was reminded of it recently:
http://groups.google.com/groups?group=perl.dbi
Or, if you prefer to use your own newsreader you can use:
news://nntp.x.perl.org/
You can thank the wonderful guys at perl.org for this, especially
Ask Bj�rn Hansen (http://nntp.x.perl.org/about/)
Tim.
