The server isn't unidirectional, the gateway is. Meaning that if you post to the groups, what you post won't show up as a PerlMonks node.
(Though you're right, actually we should disallow external posting to them, to avoid confusion..)

Sorry, I accidently only had codecatacombs marked readonly. Fixed now, and it looks like nobody took advantage of the overpermissiveness. All groups except perlmonks.nntpdiscuss are now returned as readonly by list.
It looks like nobody actualy attempted to post anything, and even if they had, it wouldn't have ended up on perlmonks -- the code for that isn't written yet. Instead, it would have just cluttered up the GW NNTP server.
Warning: Unless otherwise stated, code is untested. Do not use without understanding. Code is posted in the hopes it is useful, but without warranty.

If I made a mistake, please let me know (such as by replying to this node).
