yeah, not sure what's going on over here yet... i've found my JAMNNTPD server
disappeared several times... your connections may have been when it was gone
before i started it back up again... there's been some updates to the code but
i haven't gotten the latest to see if i can compile it on my system... i'm
actually considering to move the whole thing to another system, though...
that'll remove the burden from the system it is on right now as well as
clearing up some niggling things with the interfacing of so many programs with
the BBS' JAM message areas...

yeah, i was on the site the other day and it really appears to be another
abandoned package... there's no support posts or anything since 2010... it
might be time to find another news reader to use :/
