I vote emphatically against moving this to a newsgroup.  I don't think that
the traffic justifies it.  Also, we'll all be subject to much more spam
both from the newsgroup spammers and from the spammers who harvest mail
addresses from newsgroup headers.

If cygwin or some well-connected site wanted to set up a private NNTP
server to host a private newsgroup, however, I think that would be a
great idea.
