I wrote my previous mail to describe my opinion why NNTP server 
is not there for Plan 9.  It may concernes with why DBMS is still not 
there for Plan 9, because NNTP server deals with a large database, 
and it is a file server as read from its name. :-)

Then, I recommended someone who has skills  try to do it, and it
must be an important work for all of us, not only for NNTP server 
itself.

Therefore, I thought this problem is not merely to port Alef to
something, and it should not be my task.
