Re: [racket-dev] Switching to Google Groups
Please contact with gmane to update the info about the lists. I use its service to access to the list with NNTP.

Re: [racket-dev] Switching to Google Groups
In case anyone would like to use a non-gmail address for sign up, you can sign up from this URL: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/racket-dev/join The regular sign up button wouldn't let me.
