Hi Andriy, Thanks for bringing the NNTP patch up. It's an impressive patch, and I can see the amount of enthusiasm (and skill) that has gone in to creating and maintaining it. Unfortunately, it's a really big patch (almost 9000 lines), and it's quite intertwined. Ideally something large and orthogonal like this would be in its own subdirectory, with just a minimal amount of interfacing. Now, that's not the patch's fault: mutt doesn't have any "plugin" hooks. It would be nice if we did, but it won't happen for 1.6.0. When I have some more time, I'll try to look more closely at the patch and see if there are ways mutt could support patches like this. -- Kevin J.
