Yes!!! I have been incredibly frustrated with the amount of noise on
the mailing list, the personal messages going back and forth, and
system messages posted to the list.  I've been tempted more than once
to simply unsubscribe, but there is nothing else out there covering
the same ground.  I'd really prefer a newsgroup, where I can just
follow the threads I want, and follow them in some sort of organized
way.
 
Can the newsgroup be set up so that replies go to the posters and not
the group?
