Please wait...
Oh yeah!!! nearly forgot! Someoen mentioned that NNTP was in the works, if thats true what newsgroups will be available on uncensored?
NNTP is a protocol, it isn't necessarily something that opens up the floodgates of Usenet News.
I would hope Uncensored wouldn't hook into the general Usenet News feed.
Gads... much of that stuff is horrible. It used to be awesome, in the early 90s, before AOL. But then, people discovered that you could treat it worse than SMTP for spreading advertising, and it's been shit ever since.

None! <grin>
What we're doing is adding NNTP to Citadel so that it works in reader mode.
All of the rooms currently available on a Citadel site will be accessible using your favorite newsreader.
As IG said, clients are like a box of chocolates. I know folks that have written their own or modified the existing ones.
So it's as easy as that! :/ I just gotta write a client that can speak the Citadel protocol and i get the chocolates? :P
And, it is even IANA approved!

This seems to be the best place to ask, so here goes: Ifg anyone uses IRC here have they heard of the Bitlbee program? If so has anyone got it working with citadel chat? I sometime chat to my facebook friends from my IRC client using Bitlbee, it works really well. Facebook uses xmpp/jabber protocol as does citadel, just wondered if there was an easy way to get it working with bitlbee ( i see in the docs people use pidgin to instant mesage there citadel friends Bitlbee would be cool.
My reasoning for posting the previuos hgere , is because i use a text IRC client and Bitlbee fits like a glove!
well, I also use bitlebee and irssi, but didn't try to connect it to citadels xmpp yet.
hint: just try it out ;-)
well i added my citadel account and when i tried connecting it issued an error message saying TLS is turned on here, but not supported in bitlbee (i think?):

I was following an out of date tutorial maybe (2009). So i will try again with docs from current bitlbee
just tried again success! One problem, i've never used the chat feature at uncensored :(
