Who is this 'we'? I don't remember any discussion, let alone a vote.

Yes, I do. I read all Python-related mailing list via the Gmane gate. It
is convenient in case of large discussions, when I can read selected
branches and ignore others. The great advantage of NNTP is that it
provides access to past discussions. I can read Python-Dev discussions
back from 1999.
Like Barry and Serhiy and perhaps others, I use gmane for all python
lists I follow with a gmane mirror. At least with Thunderbird, I
generally find it far superior to to the list interface: each list/group
automatically goes is a separate directory; only subject lines are
auto-downloaded*; I can choose to only see unread subject lines; I can
set an auto-purge time.
* I now download and read less than half of python-list and
python-ideas. When I am done with a batch, shift-C marks the rest as
'read' and therefore invisible unless I choose to see all unpurged articles.
When the gmane search page worked, it was much better than mailman's
month-by-month search. Perhaps Discourse fixes this.
We could probably figure something out with Gmane if there's interest.
There definitely is, but ...
Would be nice. It would be even better if provide the own NNTP gate and
avoid depending on third-party services.
Agreed.
