  As the main person behind the creation of comp.protocols.snmp, I
think I can speak with some accuracy.  The INTENT all along was that
there would be a one-way gateway from the snmp@uu.psi.com mailing list
into the newsgroup comp.protocols.snmp.

  In fact that did exist for some period of time.  At some point the
snmp mailing list admin folks disconnected the one-way gateway.  Said
list maintainers have steadfastly ignored my inquiries about why the
gateway was removed.  If someone else wanted to setup a one-way gate
from the list into the newsgroup, I wouldn't complain (two gateways
would not be A Good Thing though :-).  If no gateway appears soon, we
should probably propose promoting the newsgroup to an unmoderated
USENET newsgroup (it is officially just an INET group at the moment).
