Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment:

gmane was down for maybe a day early this week.  We should expect this to 
continue happening on and off, as it has for years (I use it daily).  I suggest 
that we run the test when we can and skip (or connect elsewhere) when we cannot.

try:
    s = NNTP('news.gmane.io')
except ConnectionRefusedError as e:
    self.skipTest(f'Gmane down: {e}')
