We're revamping our system for handling mail to speed things up. With
luck, it'll be enough.

We can probably do that if that's what people want. I'll have to
consult Mat about how that might affect the gateway.

It's too early, actually. An announcement newsgroup is only justified
if the discussion group is so overrun with traffic that it's hard to
find the announcements.

I don't know. We could announce it as a new list when it moves to
ARDI, but there may not be much point since it'll probably just be a
shadow of the newsgroup from now on.
