Subject: Improving HTML status for innfeed and innd
Message-ID: <[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed

Hi all,

It has recently been asked in a French newsgroup the possibility to add 
a link to an external web page for feeds in HTML status.

Examples of innfeed and innd status:
   http://pasdenom.info/usenet/innfeed.status
   http://pasdenom.info/usenet/inn_status.html

That is to say, instead of:

nntp.alphanet.ch
  ip address: 193.72.186.6
     seconds: 1127           duplicates: 0     max allowed cxns: 1
     offered: 142         uw newsgroups: 0          active cxns: 1

having:

nntp.alphanet.ch
<a href="xxxxx">Usenet reports</a>
  ip address: 193.72.186.6
     seconds: 1127           duplicates: 0     max allowed cxns: 1
     offered: 142         uw newsgroups: 0          active cxns: 1



Do you think it worthwhile adding?

Any other idea of improvements to HTML reports?



I would suggest a new "html-comment" parameter in both innfeed.conf and 
incoming.conf, that would just be printed as-is below the name of the 
feed.  This way, anything could be added (text, link...).

No change in text-only status (there's currently no need for a similar 
feature, but if you feel it should be implemented too, please tell).

Hi all,

For users of CURRENT snapshots (main branch for upcoming 2.7.0 release), 
innd no longer accepts XBATCH commands by default.  A new "noxbatch" 
parameter has been added in incoming.conf, that should be set to false 
for remote peers with which you're using XBATCH.  (This may be very rare 
nowadays...)

I wonder if it would be worth avoiding the double negative.  In other
words, introduce a new parameter "xbatch" with a default of "false" that
you set to "true" if you want to allow XBATCH access.

(I know INN has a few double negatives in configuration already, but they
tend to confuse people so it may be worth avoiding adding new ones.)
