Quoting Stephen J. Wilcox (steve@opaltelecom.co.uk):
For the peering point question I'm thinking some kind of multicast thing, internally I've no suggestions other than perhaps only exchanging message ids between peer servers, hence giving back a partial feed to the local box's external peers.
Any thoughts?
Ask google about "drinking from the firehose USENET multicast news", or have a look in ftp.uu.net:/networking/news/muse. I've no idea what became of this project. I first read the paper when it came out and I was running/hacking on news servers. I clearly thought it interesting enough to keep a copy of it. James
