	Also it was asked what newsreaders were available.  I know
	karl has trn, rn and nn.  I have trn, rn and vn.  Both
	trn and nn use a database for their threading, and the
	databases are *huge*.  Karl has the space for both, I don't.
	There is a unified cnews database project going on with
	support for both trn and nn.  That will ease supporting
	both.  There are a couple other newsreaders out there, tin
	being one, but not sure if karl has it, or what its advantages
	are.
