     Personally, I would NOT want to see this mail list converted 
     to a newsgroup because I don't have access to a news feed at work.
     
     This means I'll have to access the group at home,  and well,
     who's got time at home to spin up their hard drives?
     
     Generally speaking though,  it would be nice and expand the
     visibility of the project.    
     
     My US agency and my company don't have NNTP very high on 
     their priority list, however. 
     
     Newsgroups are viewed as entertainment more often than not.
