We've been running a news server (inn) for years. I've already put reader access in for ampr.org hosts to provide the same service that Brian provided on the machine that has died and is being decommissioned, it's on 44.131.151.2 or on the public Internet as nntp.comgw.net It wouldn't be difficult to setup some local groups just for amprnet use, it would also be fairly trivial to pipe this mailing list into a local group if that is of interest to anyone?
