Thanks Travis.  I hated doing that.

I have been having a fit with gg, and its taken just a little time to 
get a real news-reader client for posting. What a fit. Google does 
really well with some things, but gg is not one of them, IMHO.

Why not use the mailing list instead?  It’s a much easier way to
access this place.

I prefer to 'pull' rather than receive the 'push'.

The newsreader idea is better because threading works better, and
because the interface is simpler. I don't know, just preference
I guess.

I am active on several mailing lists also; they only have list
servers (not news Usenet server). The Usenet news reader concept
must be fading away, and many isp(s) are not providing the nntp
post service these days (Charter stopped it in late 2011).

There are still several free post servers out there that do not
require registration (some are free but do require registration).

What are most active pythoniacs doing with this these days?

(beats me)

Thunderbird and gmane, FWIW on Windows 7.  Several hundred Python 
mailing lists and blogs all available from one place, plus presumably 
tens of thousands of other such beasties for just about everything under 
the sun.

I moved my news reader stuff like comp.lang.python over to my
Thunderbird mail client yesterday; works well and is as functional
as sea-monkey ever was. The client is nice and has none of the
short-comings of gg.

The server &Thunderbird complain about the line lengths when in
excess of 79 characters (says it can't post) but posts anyway. I've seen
that at least one|twice.

Gmane looks interesting... gonna try it.
