Matthias,

Good deal.  I'll add a link (or links) on SourceForge.

Their policy sounds fine to me.  Go ahead and authorize gmane to post to 
bogofilter & bogofilter-dev.

I wish we could get SourceForge's web based discussion groups (bugs, 
patches, requests, etc) to automagically appear on our mailing lists.  I'd 
like to know all that's happening in and around bogofilter without having 
to click on a bunch of web pages.
