Update to 3.0.1 and remove reference to few bogus mirror sites.
3.0.1 Sat Apr 6 01:59:56 EST 2002 (ap.pog.gia.tu.ra)
* compat: update config.sub and config.guess to autoguess
Darwin / MacOSx
* compat: update ./configure to autoconf-2.53
3.0-b2 Fri Apr 5 01:32:28 EST 2002 (oneiromancy)
* new: README.pam
* change: use $libexec/nntpcache.debug for debug symbols
* new: permit ':' and '@' in username and password
definitions. some At-Home & MS passport
controlled (ugh) were of this format
* compat: be more flexible in closing and re-assigning
file-descriptors. fixes some bogus openlog()/
closelog() implementations
* change: doc/proff.style NAZI's
* compat: eliminate pid_t warning in src/debug.c
* compat: change "stat" to "status" for
contrib/newshound/newshound.c. "stat" conflicted
with the stat.h definition under AIX-5.1
* change: don't try and debug the debug task if it
can no-longer read messages from other
tasks
* new: explicitly tell users to use 'nntpcached -n'
for INSTALL step 8
3.0-b1 Sat Mar 30 11:51:29 EST 2002 (Enantiomorphosis)
* new: idiot proof nntpcache.servers configuration
* new: Make the decision to use a new mmap backing
file on restart configuration via "refreshMmap"
* change: explicitly enable core dumps
* bugfix: fix bogus log message in src/xover.c
* new: prevent runaway debug analysis by checking
at most once every half hour
* change: use mode, as opposed to flock/lockf locking for
cached articles/headers. this technique is more
reliable over nfs and newserver/reader crashes
* new: robustify newsgroup structure locking
* compat: under MacOSX, cc reports as gcc, but gcc CPP is
not "gcc -E"
* compat: AIX needs -lbsd for flock()
* new: verbosely describe "server rebuild in progress" error
* change: don't warn on seeing (\r[^\n])+\r\n, as this
seems to be embedded in quite a few wild articles
* bugfix: fix a few (usually rare) xover bugs
* change: reorganise xover opening/locking/writing
functions
* compat: parse numbers representing time_t
so as not to depend on the size of time_t
(Tru64/OSF/alpha needed this)
* compat: remove extra ';' in src/http.c which caused
SUNSpro (Solaris CC) to choke
* new: improved xover expiry
* change: remove a warning in src/bregex.c. Note that the
other warnings (at least under gcc and SUNSpro
are bogus)
* compat: use strrchr instead of rindex in src/authinfo_pipe.c
* compat: EXPORT PAM functions only after pam types
have been defined
* compat: PAM compatability for Solaris and FreeBSD
(tested on Solaris-8.x and FreeBSD-4.x)
* compat: at least one newsreader used AUTHINFO with
no arguments simply to check that the command
was available. In this case return
"350 Continue with authorization sequence"
* compat: smarter scripts/genextern.sh
* compat: add/reorder includes for mmap/mmap_tests.c
* bugfix: don't use autoconf to generate mk/rules.mk,
as automake uses this file before configure
time.
* compat: add SPT_PADCHAR definition for Linux in
libproff/setproctiltle.c
* change: add comment about bogus gcc warning in
libproff/pattern.c
* change: update doc/proff.style
* change: move newshound config file to /etc/newshound/
* bugfix: various newshound bugfixes
* new: perl newshound contributed by jer@gweep.net
* bugfix: add missing /* */ pair in log.h (amazingly
gcc compiled the previous code without
complaint)
* compat: wrap all GNU C extensions in GNUC_EXT
macros, including extensions exported by
scripts/genextern.sh (EXPORT macros)
* compat: explicitly check for GNU make variations
at ./configure time and give copious help
if GNU make can not be located. Explicitly
tell the user to use the discovered GNU make.
* bugfix: CPP does not define build symbols which
are needed by scripts/genextern.sh as
opposed to cc -E. Always check for cc -E
at ./configure time
* new: NEWS file
* change: modify INSTALL so even the pentagon can
understand nntpcache builds with GNUMake
* change: modify INSTALL to reflect new mailinglist details
* bugfix: extensive three pass automake hackery to force
regeneration of .ext's at the correct time and in
the correct order
* bugfix: sometimes a HEAD followed by a BODY when neither
was previously cached resulted additional header
characters in the body. Triggered by Pine.
* compat: don't use creeping bsd featureisms (warn,<err.h>)
in libproff

In fact, what it does is pass certain NNTP commands through -to real (remote and possibly local) news-servers based on various -pattern matching rules. nntpcache then takes the output from those -servers and caches & indexes it in funky ways (much specific case -magic goes into this).

NNTPCache can transparently -merge multiple servers, (permiting local newsgroups with remote -NNTP feeds), filter articles, xovers, and headers based on weighted -regular expressions, and has built in NoCem/PGP (anti-spam) support -(see www.nntpcache.org or www.nocem.org for details).
