| | | Well, I finally got my streaming news client able to reply to messages (1) on LUGNET. It turns out I didn't need cookies after all! ...But then I vagualy remembered that this fact was mentioned in the past, but I haven't been able to find the (...)

| | | | | (...) Cool!!! (...) Well, cookies are an HTTP thing. If your client is posting articles, I think you'll find NTTP to be much simpler and cleaner for that. :-) All the HTTP posting mechanism does is opens up a single-use temporary NNTP session from (...)

| | | | | | | (...) ok, I'll ask for myself then - is it ok if I do call it LugnetReader? Since it's currently very lugnet specific, and I have no plans of expanding it further? It _can_ be done, just needs the nntp interface module written for it... But I've no (...) (25 years ago, 12-May-00, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

| | | | | | (...) I'm using the HTTP interface, since there is support for that protocol in the official Java libs. There is no "official" NNTP lib for Java, though there is a 3rd-party lib I will be evaluating when time permits. Then again, a minimalist NNTP (...) (25 years ago, 13-May-00, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

| | | | (...) 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 (...) (25 years ago, 12-May-00, to lugnet.admin.nntp)
