   no, it does not... versions in repos are either different releases or   
   development code bases... they do not need to be removed... especially if they   
   are still being worked on... i know that jame is still working on the stuff at   
   ftnapps...

   that is one of the code bases... it does not have all of the latest fixes and   
   enhancements that some of us have added to our copies... you can take that one   
   and follow the bread crumbs to add the parts that have been adjusted since   
   then or you can start with 1.2 like i did and add the fixes from there... i   
   haven't looked at 1.3 so i don't know what fixes have been added to it from   
   1.2... if/when i go to 1.3, i'll just compare the code with my 1.21.b9/wpusa   
   code and see what needs to be added or changed there... then i'll compile and   
   test it and assign it another of my personal version numbers at that time if   
   it works as desired...   
      
   BTW: i responded to your issue #6 at the ftnapps repo... i read over the RFC   
   and i don't think that your simple fix will work... mainly because JAMNNTPd is   
   not a mode switching NNTP server... your news clients would know this if they   
   used the CAPABILITIES request as noted in the RFC... anyway, just thought i'd   
   let you know that i did consider the request and was going to add it to my   
   code base for testing but not without further study of the RFC and consulting   
   with others in this echo that have a better understanding than i...

   Do you manage your own servers? If you are not running an IDS/IPS yer doin' it   
   wrong...
