I haven't checked out Chris's code yet, but it sounds like that his effort fits very nice in my proposed approach.
We make his program call nntp/post operation on local nntp server instead of storing it directly to a file system. The nntp server would deliver the posted record to other sites, and kicks a program that does the actual store. (Ofcourse, we can omit the local loop here. It's just a matter of taste ... make guestbook recorder side to both post and store, or just post).
If he does indexing stuff before the program stores a new record, then he have to move that part to the receiver side of the news.
