Re: Re: Next release

Hi Jeff,

Actually, the XHDR refresh doesn't seem to work at all for me now. I tried it
just now and it does the XHDR Message-IDs, but then nothing else. New articles
are shown but when you open up a newsgroup and actually look, there are none.

Regards,
Paul

Hmmm... BNR miscalculates the size of about half the articles I get, 
although I use XOVER on the first server I get headers from. It doesn't 
seem to be a XHDR-specific problem (anymore).

That is probably due to the poster not stating that the article is 
yEncoded in the subject, so BNR assumes the article is UUEncoded and 
calculates a too small size based on the number of lines.

I was thinking that when using XOVER it might be a good idea to check 
both the Lines and Bytes headers, and determine from those whether 
the article is actually yEncoded. If the average line length is 
around 60, the article is UUEncoded, if it is around 128, the article 
is yEncoded.

Just an idea for Jeff to implement if he feels like it.

That is precisely the bug that was supposed to have been fixed in 0.14.3.

About the connection stalling... I don't know what the problem you write 
of is, but I have a problem on the dynamic IP computer, with threads 
freezing on "Selecting new newsgroup..."

It happens usually when my ISP forcibly disconnects me from the Net and 
when I connect back, I have a different public IP. Then the connections 
that were retrying are connecting, getting to "Selecing new 
newsgroup..." stage and then doing nothing. No server answer (it doesn't 
show on the Servers page anyway), no connection timeout, no nothing. It 
happens on both of my servers, which are very different services (one 
public free in Poland, the other Octanews).

If I manually force them to disconnect then, and connect again, they 
start downloading as if nothing happened.

This is in 0.14.4.

That is the connection stalling problem that I'm talking about.

It looks like the Links area has been spammed. Should that be cleared 
out?

I'm on 14.4.445 and it doesn't seem to be working with Claranet and NTL. I
think the original poster was talking about the long standing bug where using
XHDR causes all articles to be reported as size 0.

Regards,
Paul
