nntp//rss Project StatusStatus for the nntp//rss projectOctober 25, 2004 - nntprss v0.5-beta-1- (Found July 2, 2008 ) Over five thousand downloads and many months later, I've finally got around to releasing the first public beta of nntprss v0.5. It now features Apache Derby as the new embedded database, support for MySQL, along with a number of bug fixes and new features including Categories, Atom support, and OPML import export.http://www.methodize.org/nntprss/status.html#10252004 December 11, 2002- (Found July 2, 2008 ) Project is nearly ready for its first alpha release. More will be available in this first alpha than I had originally planned. A full, albeit basic administrative web interface will be available - this will support addingremoving RSS channels, and status checking on existing channels. The system operates on a polling based model, enabling efficient retrieval of items by NNTP clients without overburdening the source RSS feeds. nntprss is feed-friendly, fully supporting the Last-Modified and..http://www.methodize.org/nntprss/status.html#12112002 December 21, 2002- (Found July 2, 2008 ) Ok, so things never always go to plan. This week has been a busy one, unfortunately mostly with activities aside from nntprss. However, that said, work is proceeding, and I have nearly wrapped up the channel list exportimport feature. Once that it is place, and after some minor tidying up, we'll be ready for the release. Expect to see the release up on this site in the next couple of days.http://www.methodize.org/nntprss/status.html#12212002 December 30, 2002- (Found July 2, 2008 ) nntprss v0.1 is now available!

There have been a few requests for a RSS feed for nntprss project status information - this will be available very shortly. An announcement will be made here, and on the mailing list when it has been published.http://www.methodize.org/nntprss/status.html#12312002 January 27, 2003 - nntprss v0.2 released- (Found July 2, 2008 ) nntprss v0.2 is now available. For those of you already running v0.1, check out the README for upgrade instructions. This version features a considerably stronger NNTP server implementation, more efficient channel poller thread pool, support for additional RSS properties, admin interface security and switchable content type (great for those non-HTML and command-line news readers). See the CHANGELOG for the full list of modifications. This release took a long time to get out; I will...http://www.methodize.org/nntprss/status.html#01272003 January 31, 2003 - nntprss needs you!- (Found July 2, 2008 ) Actually, what we need is to get the message out about nntprss. We currently have a small but growing base of users, and we'd certainly like to get more exposure for the project. If you know of any blogs, websites, magazines or other outlet that we should be contacting, please send an email to nntprssmethodize.org. If you publish your own blog, and enjoy using nntprss, then a link or mention about nntprss would be most appreciated! I'm just starting to plan some of the functionality for..http://www.methodize.org/nntprss/status.html#01312003 February 17, 2003 - Work continues on 0.3... and bookmarklets- (Found July 2, 2008 ) A quick update: Work is continuing on 0.3, with some interesting new features in the next release. There'll be support for NNTP client authentication, allowing you to securely access nntprss from a remote location. There'll also be something else very special... let's just say nntprss is great at letting you read RSS feeds through your newsreader, but NNTP is a two-way protocol. The next version of nntprss will begin to close the loop... Next - Ben Meadowcroft has submitted a very useful...http://www.methodize.org/nntprss/status.html#02172003 March 23, 2003 - nntprss v0.3 is now available- (Found July 2, 2008 ) After a long wait, v0.3 is finally ready.

A patch has been created, which can be downloaded from the following location: http:www.methodize.orgnntprsspatch0.3-metaweblognntprss.jar This replaces the nntprss.jar in your nntprss v0.3 distribution.
