Netnews Architecture and Protocols
RFC 5537, “Netnews Architecture and Protocols”, is a Proposed Standard document published in November 2009 by R. Allbery, C. Lindsey. It obsoletes RFC 1036, RFC 1849. It has since been updated by RFC 8315. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document defines the architecture of Netnews systems and specifies the correct manipulation and interpretation of Netnews articles by software that originates, distributes, stores, and displays them. It also specifies the requirements that must be met by any protocol used to transport and serve Netnews articles. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
