that would imho need moderation. But I don't see nor want that,
I think.

I'd say that this is a theoretical approach in that a news group
will no doubtedly expose us all to much more spam than is today, and
also reduce the s/n ratio to a point where it's useless to have this
group. Also, news are imho much less reliable to get than is a
mailing list. So my vote goes against a news group...

I'm personally subscribed to both mailing lists and want to switch
over from mv4 to ic as early as possible. In that case I would then
probably leave the minivend list. So I think the mv list would dry
out or become a mv3 user list, naturally. Problem solved, imho.
