After a bit of research I figure comp.databases looks fairly promising. I 
picked three likely candidates and subscribed. My newserver only pulled 5 
posts for alt.comp.databases, so that's out. comp.database looks moribund - 
no posts at all. comp.databases looks pretty healthy, and the threads have 
the right kind of questions.

I did add a few newsgroups for SQL Server and PostgreSQL, which are the 2 
servers I use the most at present.

I figure a person would probably have to keep track of 5-10 DB-oriented 
groups in order to pose some questions. If you had a question which boiled 
down to:

1. How do I best design the logical data model for this problem?
2. How do I set it up for database X (DDL questions, say)?
3. I am accessing X with language Y - what's the best way to do 
such-and-such?

that might very easily start out as one medium-length post in one NG, likely 
language *and* DB specific, but in hindsight best be handled as 3 separate 
questions in 3 separate groups.

It's the old problem: how many NGs do you follow? :-)
