The previous is the only mythtv-users post I found mentioning gmane (according to the google)

I am new to mythtv-users (although I have recieved mythtv-dev summaries for quite some time).  

This list traffic is very high, so I use the digest.  Replying to a post is also a bit awkward if you are using the archives or the digest.

I personally would love to see these lists on gmane, which gives a simple interface to watch/read threads and post to threads.  

The existing mythtv-users list stays the same, gmane just organizes the list traffic like a threaded newsgroup on a web page.

I don't think much would have to be done, other than a mythtv-users admin sending a email to the gmane folks

One odd (nice?) thing at gmane, they actually force nice rules if you post using their interface (80 col width, amount of copied text, post below).
