That means in the server buffer hitting J r on the nntp:gmane server.
The manual has details on Gnus Agent, it fetches messages for offline
reading.

However I just came to report that this was a temporary fix too.

In my case 1 out of 2-3 times when I update from the group buffer (hit
‘g’), it hangs indefinitely while fetching from gmane.  Upthread I've
included debugger output and config (‘A T’ in Gnus should get you
there).  I have to keyboard-quit out of it.  When I hit g again I get
both nntp stuff and my email from pop intact (not sure about nntp).
