I would change *nothing* about the existing arrangements
(which sounds like what Willie is doing).

To use gmane, you just point a newsreader at news.gmane.org;
gmane itself is discussed in the group gmane.discuss.
There's documentation and stuff at http://www.gmane.org/.

The system is being actively developed, and seems to be
headed towards: all mailing-list messages go to gmane
central in Norway, from whence they will be pushed out to
other servers hither and yon, from whence we punters read
the stuff.  (But presently we just go to Norway to get our
fix.)
