I already explained: the git mailing list is set up in a manner that will block mail from some accounts of mine without notice or error report. If there is general consensus on the list that news gateways are not compatible with the mailing list policies, please report this to gmane, and gmane will switch the list off-line. I have no idea why anybody would think this an improvement, but given the amount of flak I already got for daring to use gmane, it will probably improve the atmosphere on the list if people like me are locked out completely from participation rather than their usage of gmane be lambasted time and again. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum
