AFAIK, you already are on the whitelist.
what's going on?
Maybe your Gmail spam filters are catching the answers; see at bottom.
You haven't configured your Google groups for "no mail" have you? See
http://groups.google.com/groups/mysubs
is it an exclusive club?
no.
wish vim had a cool bunch of people like emacs instead of just letting
me locked outside for ages..
I don't know what kind of people there are on the Emacs list, but most
of the people on the Vim lists are helpful, polite and good-humored.
Sometimes we see a whining and griping post like yours here, but it's an
extremely rare exception. If you prefer Emacs and its groups, you're
welcome to use it and lurk there instead.
its disgusing and condescending..
There are three moderators on the vim.org list, at least two of which
live in the CET/CST time zone. Each of them sometimes sleeps, eats,
shops, watches TV, reads the newspaper, makes love, goes on holiday,
maybe even works, so there's no guarantee at any time that there'll be
at least one moderator online. However it's an extremely rare event that
a day passes without at least one moderator cheching the approval queue.
Then once a moderator has seen a mail, in the extreme majority of cases
its author is either whitelisted or (if it was spam) blacklisted,
meaning mail from that address won't be held in the queue in the future
anymore — it'll be either posted or blocked with no moderator intervention.
I don't know what nabble is, or if it adds an additional waiting delay,
or even an additional moderation; however, if you don't see the replies,
check https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2#spam — maybe gmail is acting up.
You should periodically check both your gmail inbox (or Trash if you
read your Google mail via POP or IMAP) for uncaught spam (and report it
as spam using "More actions" in the webmail interface) *and* your gmail
Spam folder for legitimate mail erroneously caught as spam (and click
"Not spam" in the webmail interface). This is to "teach" your gmail spam
filters what _you_ regard as spam or as non-spam.
Best regards,
Tony.

The problem ... is that we have run out of dinosaurs to form oil with.
Scientists working for the Department of Energy have tried to form oil
using other animals; they've piled thousands of tons of sand and Middle
Eastern countries on top of cows, raccoons, haddock, laboratory rats,
etc., but so far all they have managed to do is run up an enormous
bulldozer-rental bill and anger a lot of Middle Eastern persons. None
of the animals turned into oil, although most of the laboratory rats
developed cancer.
