Here is a new version of my Tass newsreader.  This version has many bug fixes
and improvements, including NNTP support.  Here is the list of changes from
the README:

	o Index files are now 1/2 to 1/3 their previous size
	o Tass is much more conservative in its memory usage
	o Tass recognizes .signature and .Sig files
	o Screen updating is more efficient in many places
	o Job control fixed for BSD systems
	o The various mailing commands work better
	o Author search
	o Support for NNTP (rtass)
	o Many other enhancements

If you haven't seen Tass before, it's a threaded visual newsreader with
an index page which may remind you of Notes.
