The recent mention of slashdot reminded me that I've been meaning to
give it a try. So I added nnslashdot as a secondary select method and
I got a bunch of new groups when I restarted gnus (uh, v5.8.7 at the
moment).
So in the group buffer, I got things like this:
43, 0: nnslashdot:SyncML 1.0 released; MAL is dead. (00/01/12/2229258)
But when I enter any nnslashdot group, I invariably get a single
article:
Content-Type: text/html

Have a made an obvious blunder? I suppose I should upgrade to v5.8.8 and
try again...

5.8.7 certainly does not work. I don't know if 5.8.8 works, Oort Gnus does,
to an extent.

Ok, I'll grab the latest CVS and give it a whirl. What the heck, life
on the bleeding edge is fun, right?

FWIW, upgrading to 5.8.8 didn't help at all. Same results.
Suggestions?

Hello,
I tried this morning to get nnslashdot working, with some success. i'm using
5.8.8, and I think the problem lies in the date reference of the articles:
sometimes the year is wrong (00 instead of 01) it seems.
But I ended up with groups with the correct reference:
505: nnslashdot:Is Mac OS X Threatening Linux? (01/01/16/230234)
witch give an Ok group when fetched.
The first time I tried, I had this line:
505: nnslashdot:Is Mac OS X Threatening Linux? (00/01/16/230234)
^^^^
which leads to the infamous "from the dept" semi-empty message
(I tried with wget), not an 404 error
message (which would be way clearer).
I don't know where the error womes from though.
Fabrice
ps: Norman, sorry if you received a malformed email from me on this topic,
I guess I hit the wrong button.

This is the patch in the current CVS version. Maybe it helps.
