Easiest, if you're not familiar with newsgroups, is to subscribe to
the mailing list.

Subscribe here:

http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Then you get an email every time anyone posts. Threading should be
handled by any decent mail client, and you just hit Reply-List (or
Reply and change the address to python-list at python.org) to post a
follow-up.

It's a good system. Works for myriad lists. The software that runs
this one (Mailman) is even written in Python, so you're using Python
to discuss Python :)
