Newsgroup should be tied to mailing list, so messages on newsgroup would appear on mailing list and vice versa. Patches were sent to mailing list.

Try yet another git mailing list archive:
  http://www.gelato.unsw.edu.au/archives/git/0606/23225.html

I'll try to publish changes at
  http://front.fuw.edu.pl/jnareb/scm/git.git/
  http://front.fuw.edu.pl/cgi-bin/jnareb/gitweb.cgi?p=git.git
after I learn how to setup ssh proxy or equivalent...
