Hi,

Has it ever been working ? maybe before when our server was at
Columbia, but certainly not since we're on linuxaudio.org.

I am seriously considering enabling this feature for linux-audio-user.
Maybe also for LAD (I think gmane is more user oriented than
developer, I'm not sure if there would be a benefit for this), but
certainly not for LAA.

This of course will be when I get a chance, and if I ever manage to
get in touch with gmane's admins to make them change this bloody
archive link that's still pointing at Columbia. So far, not a word
from them...

Cheers,
