Why not? It is a bit integrated to a _modified_ *Leafnode* (http://sourceforge.net/projects/leafnode), an NNTP proxy server's local cache to avoid wastage of bandwidth and also depends on a _modified_ *newspost* (http://newspost.unixcab.org/) software. I still am working on improving the code and wanted to release it after removing the said dependencies. Because, developers of both the above teams have not merged my code till yet. :( FYI, The newsstats is 18k pure ruby source, started on February 3, 2004 a pre-release version of newsstats have matured to version 1.2.1 and revision 30th. Let me know, if you need even a pre-release version it. -- Dr Balwinder Singh Dheeman Registered Linux User: #229709 CLLO (Chief Linux Learning Officer) Machines: #168573, 170593, 259192 Anu's Linux@HOME Distros: Ubuntu, Fedora, Knoppix More: http://anu.homelinux.net/~bsd/ Visit: http://counter.li.org/
