Work that has to be done
------------------------
* A little test suite. Small program that simulates a news server and
  replies whatever a small config file says. Maybe a shell script?

* If a request cannot be fulfilled by the cache, it should not try to
  always connect the news server. This can be performance consuming
  in offline mode. (Eg. assume that a server is not reachable for at 
  least n minutes)

* Timeouts
  Use per server active timeouts instead of global timeout variables

* Crosspostings should be retrieved only once --- add a database with 
  all the articles' article ids.

* Statistic-Tools

* list description command

* support servers without overview database

? Groups without reading permission
