So this thing takes the Fnnews input and then outputs in as if it is an
NNTP remote server that your newsreader can work with?

That would be cool. :)

Does Fnnews somehow use Freenet in a way I am totaly unaware of?  Or is
it it's own server or whatever?

I'm no developer, and don't know how to use fproxy or FCRC on anything.
Nor do I know how to create much of anything in the HTML world without a
WYSIWYG interface.

Why can't you make it so that whenever you want a list of keys you just
run freenet and it gets a masterlist that everyone else on the freenet
uses?  And whenever you instert a file it uploads a key to this
masterlist.

I'll find the links.  Thanks.
