Is there some special purpose of refreshing news group viewed by WWW gate, 
other then irritating users ;) ? How about disabling it by default and 
allowing to enable auto-refresh?

Just a suggestion (thanks for greate www-news gate!)

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="600"> _is_ automatic refresh. Not
customizable but automatic. Writing "allowing to enable auto-refresh" do you
mean there is other standarised way of autorefreshing through HTML?

Hi Rafal,

We did this deliberately to annoy you, because we wanted you to come and
complain here instead of simply clicking 'personalise' to turn the automatic
refresh off. Our week isn't complete without a message from you !
