For what it's worth, I agree with Frank - I almost exclusively use the archives for checking new messages - it's a simple layout, day by day, just click on a message that interests you - easy to catch up on new messages and follow threads. When the archives are down I revert to the daily digest (email), but then I often don't bother - unless there's a particular thread that interests me. Then sometimes I just give up for a few days. Call me lazy, but that's just how I approach this list. I find I get lost with the Google groups page and just give up on it, though it is handy as a back up. I could also see that it would be useful if there were hundreds of messages a day - but there aren't.
If there was an option that allowed for messages to be presented in chronological order rather than grouped under topics, then I would be behind that.
