I'll disagree with this unless it is on a closed server and NOT available via the mainstream news channels. I've seen enough weirdos pollute a good newsgroup, just because they can - all the good people that make it worthwhile leave and start a mailing list. While there IS a lot of traffic and some of it extraneous the signal-to-noise of this as a mailing list is still VERY high. Something I simply do not think would continue to happen if it went to news. Somehow on any subject on a newsgroup that is even vaguely controversial the nut cases come out of the woodwork and any benefit would most likely degenerate into a nightmare. Pardon me for being paranoid, but if anyone could read it, I'd rather the FDA and those with vested interests in seeing this not happen had to work to find it rather than have it delivered to their desktop...
