+1 on all three points.  Via gmane, specifically.

Thus far a newsreader has been the only successful way I can follow a 
community -- flat mailing lists are too disjointed and hard to follow 
context, and websites are "out of sight, out of mind"; I might keep up 
for a few weeks but inevitably forget for a while and then I'm 1k 
messages behind and I just ignore it forever.
