There are a number of questions I have about making the draft clearer. I'd like specific feedback on these things. I didn't include any examples. I do intend to include some, but I want to know if they should be in a section all on their own (like RFC 977) or mixed in with each command to show how it is used. What do people think? Also, what about the format? Should the one used in RFC 977 be used here? I used the tactic from RFC 977 concerning ARTICLE, STAT, HEAD, and BODY. Should I change that so that each is discussed individually? Are there any references I didn't cite that folks think are useful to readers of the document? I also didn't include a section that lists all the keywords and all the response codes together. Is that useful? I thought about including more information about how the "current group pointer" and "current article pointer" work to make it easier for first time implementors to implement NNTP. Is that useful? Or, should that be something in another document? Thanks in advance for your comments. -- Stan | Academ Consulting Services |internet: sob@academ.com Olan | For more info on academ, see this |uucp: {mcsun|amdahl}!academ!sob Barber | URL- http://www.academ.com/academ |Opinions expressed are only mine.
