It works great for the messages there, and if they are all or close to all, no harm. And I have no data as to the actual discrepancy, if any, just a hunch. gnu.emacs.help isn't always gnu.emacs.help either, depending on server. This is something I noted on nntp.aioe.org. > no "gmane" on Eternal.september, I'm not > ready to slow gnus down with another server. True that, Usenet is faster than Gmane and in particular gmane.emacs.help is very slow. I have asked why on gmane.emacs.gnus.general but no one seems to know or if they do they ain't telling. -- underground experts united http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573
