And to do this Gmane says you must be the admin of the mail list to be
imported...
Obviously I am not.

You need to ask Gmane maintaner to import the archives.

I have submitted fpc-devel to Gmane. It should get
gmane.comp.compilers.free-pascal.compiler.devel group name, but we will
see about that later.

And that's a good thing. HTML adds nothing to discussions and just eats 
up bandwidth and storage. Use plain text to communicate - it has worked 
for decades before, and will do for decades to come.

+1, and obviously it beats mailing lists too. ;-)

* NNTP was built for group discussions
* NNTP allows the end-user to decide the application and user interface to
   read NNTP discussions (plus tons of other reader based features)
* NNTP doesn't require an email address (some free email services inject
   advertising, limits the ability of plain text communications, can't do
   threaded conversions etc.)
* NNTP can do things like canceling messages (posted in error)
* NNTP is fast - it just rocks!  :)

  Graeme

Well here is where /I/ disagree ;)

Me Myself, I prefer Gmane/news and Gmane/web, before mailing lists, and forums 
least ;)

(Gmane also has ways to import the mail archives.)

Bo, nice to see you in here. Please feel free to ask questions on SSH 
etc. if you've got loose ends, since I don't think we'll be coughed at 
in here :-)


I'd note that I interface to the mailing lists using NNTP and a modicum 
of Perl, but messages with embedded HTML etc. tend not to make it past 
the spam filters.
