Yeah, sorry I forgot to mention that :)  It's only in CVS.

The way I use it is this:

(setq gnus-subscribe-options-newsgroup-method 'gnus-subscribe-topics)
(setq gnus-subscribe-newsgroup-method 'gnus-subscribe-topics)

What I use this for (mostly) is for a topic called People.  messages
from certain people (according to a BBDB field) get split into a
folder called mail.people.<name>.  All groups automatically created in
the People topic get assigned a level of 1, like so:

((subscribe-level . 1)
  ...other topic params...)

(as viewed with G p on the topic)

Hope that helps,
