I principle, yes, but those miniature reinventions are
perhaps tolerable. But yes, a Gnus template with those
two lines (or the like), and comments that describe how
Aioe and gmane differ, something I still don't know, by
the way. gmane seems slower. But I got a mail from them
asking me to confirm my identity, so that indicates
they are more aware of spammers and that kind of
people.

Yes, I'm convinced :)
