Well, I'm actually doing it through HTTP.  Todd's point about NNTP being
simpler (1) has a lot of merit (and I've always wanted to write my own), but
there is no standard (2) NNTP lib for Java that I know of.  Not that the
protocol is extremely difficult, however...

very cool :)  I'm a bit delayed in the cleaning up past (I hate it when work gets

1.  I'll need to do some thinking before I can actually respond, Todd, but I'm

2.  There *is* a 3rd-party lib available from the same folks who wrote a free,
pure Java regex library with Perl syntax, which sounds cool, but I haven't
really evaluated it yet.  I'm trying to avoid 3rd-party tools, though...

3.  Hmmm.  Java + Avid = Javid.  Hmmm.
