    Question for you about the WINS project. Would it be difficult to break news
    out of the package to be used as a stand alone or do you think it would
    be
    easier to cut over to D'Bridge?

    Does D'Bridge do direct NNTP client functions?

    Yes, should be straightforward. All of those PPP Project modules are, technically, standalone. There are dependencies for user data, as others have noted, given that some NNTP servers require authentication. They are also spawned from the main module, but can be run directly with a correct command line.

    No, D'Bridge would require the use of WWIVToss as well.

    D'Bridge uses SOUP to download USEnet. Then it converts the messages
    to FTN format. Then WWIVTOSS would have to be used to convert from FTN
    to WWIV.

    That is how I have things working over here. Sounds more complicated
    than it really is.
