Oooh, we used to *dream* of having 300 baud. We had to send our data one
bit at a time using Morse code tapped out on an old drainpipe.
I think I was lucky enough to set up on a 14.4kbps. I thought that was blazing
fast. (I used to manually write to my printer using my CoCoIII @ 300-2400) My
eventual bump to 56k was like being a kid in a candy store. Then came AOL and

I followed the Gmane rabbit hole a bit.
It seems whomever is the admin is setting up a new server @ news.gmane.io
They claim they were going to have it up by January, but still no go best I can
tell.
However, it is an NNTP server - a.k.a. Usenet newsgroups.

It is not really dead, but you can currently only access it by a news

This email string exists on Nabble and is current. I was able to search and
find it, but I didn’t try posting directly to Nabble. I have a separate account
and password for that. I have posted directly to Nabble for some time.
I originally joined Nabble not knowing better for the reasons stated
Nabble no longer works, at least for the GnuCash list.
I'm not sure to say, but I have enough to abandon my searches on Nabble.
