	For crying out loud, are we going to go thru this AGAIN?

	RMS:  We need a monthly posting explaining that this "newsgroup"
is a mailing list gatewayed into news, and that since FSF runs the
mailing list they control the group.  That's just the way it is period!
And if too many people complain -- nuke the gateway.  People who want
info on gcc can subscribe to the mailing list.
