I support publication of this document as Proposed Standard. The
DISTRIBUTIONS, MODERATORS, MOTD, and SUBSCRIPTIONS commands have been
implemented in INN for years and are supported by many NNTP clients, and
the additional status flags in LIST ACTIVE have been in use in INN for
many years.
LIST COUNTS is new in this document but closes a long-standing issue with
LIST ACTIVE that otherwise causes some clients to issue many separate
GROUP commands, and was added with the consultation of NNTP client
implementors.
I believe this document is a good addition to the set of NNTP standards.
