On http://www.gnus.org/resources.html, it says:

About gnu.emacs.help:

  * The gnu.emacs.gnus newsgroup is the appropriate
    place to ask questions on usage of released
    versions of Gnus.

About ding@gnus.org or gmane.emacs.gnus.general:

  * Discussions about Gnus development takes place on
    the ding mailing list. It's a mid-volume list
    (10-30 messages per day) and is open for anyone
    interested. To subscribe, send a message to
    ding-request@gnus.org to subscribe. The address of
    the mailing list itself if ding@gnus.org.

  * The ding mailing list is gatewayed to the
    gmane.emacs.gnus.general newsgroup. The gateway is
    bi-directional ­ everything mailed to the mailing
    list will appear on the newsgroup, and all articles
    posted to the newsgroup will appear on the mailing
    list.

Man, I've been missing out on the action! Because
gnu.emacs.gnus has nowhere near "10-30 messages per
day". Problem is, I can't get access to
gmane.emacs.gnus.general on Aioe.org. But no worry,
I'll just join the mailing list and then split it to a
group and name that gmane.emacs.gnus.general -
brilliant!
