(I've been meaning to look up what this stands for?)

Yes, well one source for linux* newsgroups being deprecated can be found
through the LDP docs, that's where I last read it a couple of years ago.
Look under a ~'where to get further help with Linux' resource link.

One thing that I'm not sure still happens is that whomever is running
this mail > news gateway honors, or is stripping (inadvertently perhaps)
'X-No-Archive: yes' from the list postings if the author is placing them
there, as I do. I don't mind Debian or any other ML I'm subscribed to
maintaining a Web archive. However, I mention it only as I get the
feeling (I'll check later in l.d.u. to see definitively) from finding
some of my posts to this list appearing in groups.google.com that the
header is being removed along the way.

BTW, who is doing the gateway'ing? If need be, I'd like to contact them
directly, other than looking at bang paths for a clue to their identity.
