There is stuff in the Gnus manual on writing backends, but the
web-based backends mostly follow the same form. Just take
nnultimate.el, rename it and start hacking away at it. nnslashdot is
probably simpler. Less stuff like
(nth 2 (car (cdr (nth 2 contents))))
than nnultimate. (w3 parse trees are very logical once you get used
to them. :-)
