I do enjoy the forum here. And I'm not gonna bother with something that is
not nntp.


Kind regards

Everyone is able to post and respond in the same manner as nntp. It's
setup to be available just like the forums here. Anyone can view &
search the content, so it's an open source of information to the
public. It's also within a community of other artist of media
production; video, graphics, web, networks & computers.

Since you seem to be using the (markedly inferior) Google
Groups web-based peephole into Usenet, you likely have
no concept of what real NNTP is. Perhaps that is why you
think some web-based forum is equivalent. It is not.

Does that mean you are mirroring it to a real Usenet
newsgroup? What is the name of the newsgroup?
(for example, this is news:rec.audio.pro) Usenet and
real newsgroups have nothing to do with Google.

What's the NNTP server address, then? And why do that and not have it
propagate?

The OP apparently doesn't know what NNTP is.
He appears to be reading Usenet on GoogleGroups
and things this is just annother "online forum"

I have seen usenet responses that contained a higher degree of wisdom. But
since you favour google so much, then google for what nntp really is all
about.

OF course, he's not clued in on what usenet really is. Hey
maybe we shouldn't have told him, all the wanna be can't
figure out how to use a compressor and best way to get
karaoke tracks folks would go there.
Already put the op in the bozo bin.
What's that sound?

Actually, some of the standard web forum software out there has an NNTP
interface. For example, the Baen Bar, set up by Baen Books. Everyone
mostly reads it from their website, but you can connect your newsreader
up to the NNTP port and use it to read the fora with. I'm not sure what
software their server is using but whatever it is runs under Windows.
It has no way of propagating to other servers, though.

I don't know what adobe is using, but they do offer nntp: access, I didn't
feel it to be an unfair question and was surprised that it surprised the
original poster. It's too difficult to archive locally in case of web acess
only, not gonna bother if I can't get a searchable local archive where I
decide the scroll-off.

Lots of vendors and user groups run forums that are available
both as HTTP web pages, and completely mirrored as traditional
NNTP newsgroups. Microsoft themselves are a prime example.
And their newsgroups (microsoft.public.*) are propogated
like any other TLD.

It is a highly recommendable newstree indeed. And while it is propagated it
is perhaps best to get it directly from the source because of the long
retention.
