I sometimes get a message
Search failed: "^222.*$"
while reading news with gnews. Gnews then refuses to access the article. I
am using Gnews 2.0 with nntp access to the news.
Anybody an idea? (I hope somebody is reading this group - I never have seen
a message.)
I'm afraid that Gnews is pretty much an orphan. I wanted to try and
support it in terms of bugfixes, etc., but I don't have time since
my advisor expects me to actually finish my dissertation someday. I
set Matthew Wiener up with an account here so he could work on a new
version of Gnews, and he logged in a few times, but he seems to have
stopped (last login on Oct 2). I fear he is under the same kind of
pressure that I am. So, Gnews will probably receive no work except
that of it's users. I will act as a central "official" patch
releaser if people want to send me fixes to 2.0.
