I'd have to reluctantly agree. I've been using Usenet for 25 years, and I still read this as comp.lang.python, but this is practically the only Usenet group left that I follow. There are a number of mailing lists I follow via gmane's NNTP server, and I can certainly do the same for this one. I've been filtering out all postings from GG for years, so it doesn't really matter to me, but apparently there are a lot of people with defective mail/news clients for whom that's apparently not possible?
