I propose adding fpc-devel list to Gmane service. fpc-pascal list is there already and for completeness, fpc-devel would be nice addition.

Anyone can file such a request, since it's not a social list. Feel free to do so.

+1 (not that I would have much to contribute on devel, but it is nice being able to follow discussions)

And NNTP beats forums outright!

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.

mailing lists put both to shame ;) O:)

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.

I got it approved. Now we wait that somebody posts in fpc-devel so group will be created.

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.)

+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! :)

Regards,
Graeme

Found it! :)
But is there any way that the existing mail archives can be imported?

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