I saw many people posted messages to both googlegroups and the beginner list.
Why can't we make a gateway between googlegroups and this list?
Like python, people posted to either the list or groups, readers can
get messages at both locations.

The problem isn't people posting to perl.beginners group and the
perl.beginners list (the group is just an nntp gateway to the list).
The problem is that people are posting to Perl Monks,
comp.lang.perl.misc, and the perl.beginners list at the same time.
Thus wasting the time of at least two groups of people.


Then, can we make a gateway between comp.lang.perl.misc and this list?
That will save a lot time for both posters and answers.

It would be possible, but since this list exists because of the
hostility of the users on clpm toward beginners it would be a bit self
defeating.
