Nothing. Let's *PLEASE* to to a fedora-private nntp system for the
fedora community "groups". Using mail lists for the community has been and
continues to be torture.
There are already two ways of viewing this list via NNTP, why do we need
another?
As previously mentioned, gmane.org carries the Fedora lists. I also go
reminded (thanks to Pete Zaitcev's Blog) that Red Hat also already runs an
NNTP gateway (news://news.redhat.com/).
Anyone wishing to test a "news-to-web" gateway would do well to start
there tests with one of those two.
This is inaccurate, especially if you can read this reply because it is most assuredly being sent to newsgroup gmane.linux.redhat.fedora.general
OK, I'm corrected. *I* can't seem to get my posts to it to forward to the list. See my reply to William Hooper above. I presume it's some problem in the email confirmation, which I didn't know about until just now.
