Whoa, how the .... does that work? I don't have a "Gmane" server
defined in my backends, but it subscribed to it and I can look at that
group on Gmane. This also works in my original case, where I have that
foreign server defined:
(gnus-subscribe-newsgroup "nntp+news.gwene.org:gwene.org.slashdot")
so I guess it solves my problem, but I'm really curious why the "Gmane"
server worked without a definition and I am not sure if I can rely on
this behavior for general sync.
