Recent reports of slow startup seem to be a result of Highwinds-Media adding 
~10,000 groups to their list. By default, slrn subscribes the user to all new 
groups unless the unsubscribe_new_groups configuration variable is set to 1.

I suspect that the majority of users would prefer new groups to be 
unsubscribed by default, even when problems like this don't occur, so I'm 
asking for the default for this variable to be changed from 0 to 1.

Better still, perhaps the variable should be replaced 
by "subscribe_new_groups" with a default of 0.
