I've never tried reading the mailing list directly (I'm not willing to give up slrn), but the last time I ran NNTP threading tests (I refuse to admin how much time I spent writing a Python app to do that), My Usenet feed was noticably worse than Gmane. Gmane had a fair amount of breakage as well, but was better than Usenet. -- Grant Edwards grant.b.edwards Yow!
