I see it as a fourth rate solution to a problem that simply does not 
exist.  As I've said previously just point your email/news reader app at 
news.gmane.org and get all of the filtering done for free.  Setting this 
up takes at least a minute, plus seconds for each of any of the 
thousands of mailing lists that you want to subscribe to.  What more 
could anybody want, blood on it?
