Newsgroup - another try?

BTW: We have currently 822 adresses subscribed to R-help and 568 to R-announce
     (which is gatewayed into R-help). If I add R-devel and the *-digest
     lists and uniqify the subscribed addresses, we currently have 1338 unique
     subscriber addresses (up from 1119 as of Feb.2, when I started
     collecting the combined statistics).

In that case I suppose the biggest argument against R-help becoming a newsgroups would be the small user base.
In fact, it came a bit as a shock to me (but I'm alright now).
Cheers,

Henry
