Yes, but with Gmane, there is only the one server (or server cluster, or whatever), The only issue then would be that I have to switch the primary NNTP server, and lose all of my current state, and I don't want that. Or is it possible to make Gnus produce .newsrc files for other NNTP servers than the primary one...?
