When merging: does it make more sense to merge on the nntp-address rather than the server name? I have one gnus that has a different "news" server than the rest of them. Hm... I see one problem with this: the nntp-address equivalent is different, depending on the backend. The server name is consistent across backends. Perhaps I should just rename the server name for the default server on this particular Gnus, from "news" to something different? I think I'll do that.
