This is true, but no need to change the listserver to add that to every 
outgoing message; to Quote the GMANE rules:

So it would just take one email from the list owners to Lars Magne 
Ingebrigtsen <larsi+gmane AT gnus DOT org> to change the settings for all the 
cygwin groups.

Furthermore, with that same email, if the listowners wish, they could 
provide a pointer to the list of Cygwin mbox-formatted archives and then 
every historical message from the Cygwin M.L. could be also be in the 
Gmane repository.

If the listowners wished ...
