Description sjr 1999-01-04 00:00:01 UTC 
	INN 1.7.2 suffers from 2 Y2K related problems. One occurs when
	pulling news (-f option to nntpget) and the other relates to
	the Expire header with relative dates past 2000.

State Changed
From-To: open->closed

The INN 1.7.2 port has been removed in favour of the INN-2.2 series. 
If this version has any Y2K problems, please re-submit a PR. 

Thanks!

INN Version 2.2.2, December 13th, 1999

This is a bug-fix release that corrects a y2k bug in 2.2.1 that will
show
up in the NEWNEWS and NEWGROUPS commands after 2000-01-01 00:00:00 when
the date specified to the command is before 2000-01-01 00:00:00    

The current 2.2.1 ported version does have this problem.

Gavin.
