NNTP package for offline news caching and reading

Leafnode v1.11 is a simple, IPv6 enabled NNTP server and client designed for small sites. Think store & forward proxy if you like.

It “learns” which newsgroups should be downloaded based on what’s accessed. Use it to enable online newsreaders to offline reading or to reduce your external bandwidth if you have several users accessing Usenet news.
