Just got an email from Gmane - they processed my request and switched both lists. Looks like indeed their operation is based on human intelligence, and doesn't involve requester authentication step.

I don't understand the notion that we have anything to do with Gmane. Also I have no idea how they tell "list administrators" from non-administrators (I guess they just manually check whether a change request makes sense), but from that little form there, you and me have the same permissions as far as Gmane concerned.

Still I see no point in discussing this further, so I filled in the forms for both lists and sent it to them.

Adding or subscribing by no means, since Cayenne is on Gmane since years. Doing that again, would be a misuse of their service. (just look at the statistics to see since
when is caynne active there).

The correct place where one should change these values would be:
"http://gmane.org/info.php? group=gmane.comp.java.cayenne.devel&edit=t"
and
"http://gmane.org/info.php?group=gmane.comp.java.cayenne.user&edit=t";

(So from the Cayenne detail pages:
"http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.cayenne.devel"; and
"http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.cayenne.user";
using the "edit" link)

But as I said, as anonymous (or as not the owner of those lists) I can't change the relevant
information i.e. the list email address :(.

Ahmed.
