Now wait a second.  There are plenty of netnews sites that do not have
email and ftp access.  To solve that problem, however, I recommend setting
up gnu.sources as an alternative means of getting the source out.  It
should not be too hard to set up an automated poster that would post
about 64k an hour.  You should then have a recycle time of about, oh, say
2 months (not that bad really :-).
