An update in case someone stumbles on this thread in the future.
As a news service, 'gmane' is still around. It's the web interface
that's not working. In another thread Günter wrote:
… the "traditional" GMANE news interface works fine with lyx. I
use it with the slrn news reader:
slrn -n -h news.gmane.org
Separately I accidentally found that the news interface also works
through 'news.gwene.org', e.g. as:
nntp+news.gwene.org:gmane.editors.lyx.devel
