C-News is a
newsserver, written by
Henry Spencer and
Geoff Collyer[?] as a replacement for
B-News.
C News
handles the transport and storage subsystems of
the news software. The latest
official relase is from
1993, and
C News is now mostly obsoleted by
INN. It is presumably still used for some small news servers.
C News is basically communication protocol neutral, but includes support for UUCP. Later releases also included support for NNTP.
