Haha!  Congratulations!  I made the move myself a month or two ago and
haven't regretted it since.  Only problem is that you don't get the
benefit of DJ's spam filters on the newsgroup, but that's a price you
just have to pay.  :)

Depends on whether they are posted first to the mailing list or the
newsgroup.  Since DJ's server does not have a really fast connection,
the mirroring process takes a little while.
