Thats comparing Apples and Oranges.
I dont want to write my own nntp like protocol and server/client to
implement the hyperfast opensuse group with many new features and
concepts.
I want the opensuse mailinglists to be accessable by nntp.

Again comparing Apples and Oranges. To get opensuse mainlinglists over
nntp it makes no significant difference if i connect my nntp client to
news.opensuse.org or news.gmane.org.

Yes it does. It is significant more work to setup and maintain an nntp
server on opensuse.org then to point users who want nntp to
news.gmane.org.
