r-help is already available with an NNTP interface at gmane.org: http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.r.general There is also a web based interface, where you can see that your post is already available: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.r.general Similarly, r-devel is also present: http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.r.devel The Google group you reference is completely independent of the R e-mail lists, whereas the gmane interface is synchronized with the R e-mail lists.
