The original list above was adjusted downwards to simply the lugnet.admin
and lugnet.off-topic subtrees. (In other words, lugnet.market.auction and
lugnet.market.jambalaya are included again by default.)
If you would like to customize which groups are skipped over when you browse
messages from the top-level of the web interface, there is now a Skip-Filter
settings page here:
http://www.lugnet.com/news/filter/
You can set it to show messages from all groups (exclude no groups) or just
the groups you want to exclude. It's up to you.
