As valuable as you think Gmane is and how thousands of people can benefit, I can only say "what the heck is Gmane". I've never heard of it other than the last time this discussion came up (and I've heard of most widespread things on the Internet) so I think you're way overestimating how many people would benefit. Granted, I'm a sample of one but having now checked out what is it, it just makes think "what's the big deal?" Certainly not something I see adding a lot of value. If I'm reading it right, Gmane does mail to Usenet gateway. How does that add value considering mailman already has mail to Usenet gatewaying built into it. -- Larry Stone [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.stonejongleux.com/ ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
