>> What are the objections to gmane?

Dragan> Gmane is fine, but I think it is set as R/O i.e. you can't post
Dragan> through it.

We started talking about this in July, and it fell off my radar.

Anyway, the concern about gmane is the fact that users currently have to
be registered with mailman to post via email.  So I expect anyone
posting via gmane would get a bounce.

The suggestions for dealing with this (both from Dragan) are

(1) see if there's a way to be registered with mailman but without
    actually getting email

(2) set up a dedicated news server that requires authentication for
    posting

I don't know enough about mailman to know if (1) is possible.  (2) seems
feasible, but I don't know how long it would take to set up given all
the other things people are working on.
