As more incentive: If you add such link tags, Firefox will pre-fetch the 
next page. This *greatly* speeds things up. I really notice it when I click 
on "Next by thread" in a list archive, and the next message loads instantly, 
because it was already loaded in the background while I was reading.

Messages to kdevelop-devel list not going through

A few months ago, posting to gmane.comp.kde.devel.kdevelop worked just fine. 
I was not subscribed to the list, so my messages had to be manually approved 
by the list administrator, but eventually they got through.

But a few weeks ago it stopped working. I sent a message, and three days 
later it still hadn't appeared anywhere; Gmane NNTP, Gmane web, list 
archives, etc. I tried sending it again, same thing. I tried subscribing to 
the list and sending it again, still no go.

I emailed the list administrator, and he told me that he had been on holiday 
so he couldn't do the manual message approving, and that I should just 
subscribe (even though I said in my message that I *did* subscribe and it 
still wasn't working).

I then tried sending messages directly via email, being subscribed, and 
*that did work*, so I now suspect problems on Gmane's side.

I have sent a couple different messages through Gmane since the problem 
started and none got through, so it's not a content-based spam filter issue 
either; and posting to gmane.comp.kde.users.kdevelop works with no problems.

Could someone have a look at what's going on with this newsgroup? I could 
keep posting via email, but I can't reply to messages sent while I had email 
delivery off or before I subscribed (that's what I like of NNTP)...

Opera can use them to navigate, both with keyboard shortcuts and the
navigation toolbar.  Nifty feature.  But the places that uses it, are
mostl HTML documents generated from DocBook XML.  I can't think of any
others.

Gmane archive address

Hello Admins,

is there some way how to automatically resubscribe already existing lists on
Gmane?  Or is there some unique address which we just need to include again as
with mail-archive? (The subscription db of our lists is gone...)

No; just send an email admin <at> gmane.org if resubscription is needed.

Yes, there is - email admin <at> gmane.org with the name of the
mailinglist/group and one of us will get back to you.

  Best regards,

I had that enabled earlier, but I removed if for some reason or other.
I've now put it back again.

Looks like the trailer setting for the list is wrong.  I've now fixed
it.

Could you assemble the mbox files into a single file, put it somewhere
on the web and mail me the resulting URL?

Yeah, it's an old bug.  If you clear out the cookies, it should kinda
work.

Still not working.

Someone cross-posted a message to the kdevelop-devel and kde-buildsystem 
mailing lists, which appeared in gmane NNTP in gmane.comp.kde.devel.kdevelop 
and gmane.comp.kde.devel.buildsystem. I posted a reply to that message 
through NNTP. I got a confirmation email from gmane, which I answered. Then 
I got a message from mailman saying my message to kde-buildsystem was in the 
moderator queue, since I'm not subscribed there; so it got sent to that 
list's address at least.

However, I *am* subscribed to kdevelop-devel, and the message *didn't* go 
through on that list. I even configured the list subscription to send me a 
notification when I send a message, and I get such notification when I post 
to the list via email (and message arrives to list), but not when I post
