The ILTCO feed (which is working now, sorry about that, LUGNET changed the
NNTP port number I was using) is done with a piece of PHP code which

server and displays the 5 most recent articles.
You are welcome to the PHP code, I wrote it years ago so it isn't a thing of
beauty and it certaintly isn't how I would do it now but it does work.
