There have been several recent messages in support of separating the list and newgroup; I don't think anyone has spoken up in favor of maintaining the gateway. But you should not underestimate how big a change this will be. During the week I collected data, 32 messages were posted directly to the list by subscribers. Approximately 42 messages were posted to the newsgroup. Because of the gateway, we all saw all 74 messages. But without the gateway, list subscribers would have seen only the 32 messages, and newsgroup readers would have seen only the 42 messages.
