The old list was gatewayed to gmane, which allowed me to read the list with a newsreader. Is the same planned for the new list? Or am I gonna have to figure out how to use Cyrus IMAPD with NNTP? ---

Google G. does not provide NNTP access. (Worse, because I accepted a GMail invite, I can no longer even post here using my real e-mail address - Google automatically migrates your account to GMail. Grr.) Was I the only one who cared about the NNTP interface? ---

It was a great service so I guess it should be possible again? nntp is really a good thing for mailing lists: - you don’t get lots of mails in your mailbox - you only download and read what you like - mails are automatically deleted after a while - gmane keeps an archive - gmane has rss and weblog interfaces Please? ---

Please check the Google FAQ - there IS NO NNTP access for Google G… I really hope someone plans to reinstate the gmane gateway. ---

(Minor) The mailing list prepends [Rails] to each subject line, and the gateway preserves that. But at least one newsreader, 40tude Dialog, doesn’t know enough to thread “[Rails] blah” with “[Rails] Re: blah”. It’d be nice if the gmane gateway could remove the subject prefix for us newsreaders. 2. (Major) Posting doesn’t work, as I just found when I tried to post #1… Thanks to the list admins, but hopefully these two additional problems can be solved! Jay L.
