Hey everyone, I've been scouring a few discussion lists looking for
any information on an NNTP api for Cocoa. I've been trying to get
started with a decent newsreader for OSX, but I've hit this roadblock
regarding lack of an NNTP protocol.
I'm afraid of having to slave through the RFC to find out more info and
coding my own, but I figure this is my one last ditch attempt at
finding an API somewhere for this. I know windows comes with one.
Any idea on where to go? I'm really not looking forward to coding up
an entire subsystem for NNTP. (but with lack of a decent OSX
newsreader, I just might!)

Note that the NNTP-protocol is very easy to understand, so it should be
no problem to write your own protocol engine
(AUTHINFO/GROUP/OVER/ARTICLE/QUIT should be enough).
