Greetings Paul,
Glad to see you're still plugging away at this.
Ironically, last night I decided to check in and see what was up here. After seeing no activity I thought I'd take a shot at fixing the output formatting problems of 2.2.4, and low and behold you show up too.
I'll throw my .02 vote to keep the non-vb3 version around for at least 6 months or more. I have been playing around at the vB3 beta site and from all the discussions I have read and what I've seen so far, it sounds and looks like they have a lot of work to do yet before we will see a usable (public) vB3.
As a usenet article puller your hack works excellent. I seems to me that if the output formatting problems were fixed the 2.2.4 version may be good enough to use as a posting hack too. Last year I pretty much dropped the idea of using this hack for posting to usenet after you told me you really never intend for it to be a posting gateway. So I'm more than thrilled to see you back and I really hope that you can lend a hand at tracking down the last few bugaboo's in 2.2.4.
If you need a working test platform for 2.2.4 you are welcome to use my site. Either tell me what to do or I'll work out a way to give you access.
