Is it possible to get feed form o.o ?

Kind of inspired by Carlos mentioning leafnode, I got to wonder if it
might be possible to get a feed directly from o.o ?

A newsfeed - to have the o.o newsserver feed into mine directly. It’s
the way newsgroup/USENET is distributed.

Yes, that’s the feeling I got somewhere, so as it have it controlled
with little spam. Only one server. But perhaps they could think of
having a few spare servers, if the load increases.

Leafnode is designed as to appear to upstream as another client, not as
a server - so it works.

With a news feed program that looks like a reader, sure - but feeds that
require configuration on the server side (ie, forums.opensuse.org),
probably not - limited resources and such.

The former is not a feed, the latter is. It’s not critical, it would
just enable me to merge the o.o fora with the o.o lists in my reader.

He’s asking about a newsfeed (from NNTP).

Seeing that you’re using knode, you could manage the lists and the
forum’s NNTP interface by using the lists through gmane - that would
“consolidate” things a bit for you.

Otherwise, I’m not sure I follow what you mean…

Yep, except I run my own news-server for lots of mailing lists plus
internal stuff, and that’s where I’d like to consolidate it :slight_smile:

Are you using INN for it? I seem to recall innfeed had options to do
this that didn’t require configuration on the remote server.
