I'm afraid I don't understand your reply.

People who prefer NNTP over a nice and modern WEB-forum are dumb oldtimers.

Then that is me. :) Fine, but I did also mention a "web forum front-end" to the NNTP server. So users/developers have a choice of what they want to use. A traditional NNTP Client (desktop app) or the Web Interface (Forum interface) to the NNTP server.


This is exactly what Embarcadero did too. They have loads of newsgroups, but they also knew some developers prefer web forums, so they bought such a solution and modified it to suite there needs. New postings are seen by everybody instantly - no matter if you use NNTP directly, or use the Web Interface.

Now what of this did Marco not understand? Then again, I should be use to Macro's odd answers to anything I post.
