No one. I usually read my news with Dos-Yarn - that's why I asked for a
Linux port.

There is of course the possibility to pipe the SOUP files to the local
news system (CNEWS or INN). The problem is then how to handle the
replies. And another problem is a good Linux newsreader - I don't know
any. That's why I stay with this crude Linux-Dos mix and Yarn ;)
