[Mailman-Developers] Exposing not advertised lists via nntp archiver

[Alexander Sulfrian]

Hi,

I have a conceptional problem:

There are mailinglists with a pubic archive but that not be advertised
by the server. The nntp archiver now have to supply a list of all
available archives. If this list does not contain a mailing list, in
most news clients you do not have a chance to subscribe to that group and
read the posts.

How to solve that? The only possibility I could think of uses the
filter mechanism of the available newsgroups. The clients could supply
a regexp like filter. I would implement a mechanism, that shows
unadvertized lists with an archive only if the supplied filter is
equal to the newsgroup name. Any other idea?
