Hello!

I used to be a regular in a number of newsgroups and provided
newsgroup access through my BBS back in the day.

Back to the future here! I deployed a moderen BBS on Windows Server
2019 and want to facilitate access to quality discussion-based
newsgroups via a dedicated Cent OS 7 server - no web, no email, no
FTP, etc.

My Linux server is up and running now and INN is being implemented
now. We will feed newsgroups exclusively to the BBS to expand the
array of possible conversations worldwide. There won't be any other
access to the newsgroups other than BBS members

I'm hoping to peer with anyone who's OK with the fact I don't plan on
passing through binaries or SPAM-loaded groups. Some groups I used to
frequent have fallen to spammers and are now 100% SPAM :( - There's no
good conversations to have there!
