In OmniWeb 0.9.3, there was an option to post to a newsgroup, but it didn't
work, giving a "can't connect" error. So I downloaded version 1.0, hoping this
had been fixed. Now the option has disappeared! Posting to a newsgroup seems to
be important enough to be implemented in a release version. In particular it
exists and works on Netscape.
When can we expect it in OmniWeb?
