It seems to me that there is a simple solution (if everyone goes
along).  That is to split the source distribution on Usenet off from
the main list (call it net.micro.cpm.source or net.source.cpm or
whatever they want to use), then to gateway that list in the same way
that the main list is now, but as a seperate list.  All of the non-DDN
subscribers will probably want to be on the list as well as some on
the DDN side.  It would also be useful if someone in the DDN world
would extract useful things and submit them to the archive, but I
suspect the more useful entries will end up there eventually anyway.

A more elaborate form of this might be to allow some automated
procedure to extract items from the "sources" list and keep them
somewhere for a while.  Then people submitting source could send a
note to the main list and DDN types could get a copy of useful stuff
without being required to receive and store it all.  This is similar
to the way many UNIX (tm) sites handle net.sources now.
