Hi Ken

Sure, any patches would be appreciated - there has been a TODO to improve NNTP client performance for a very long time :)

> NNTPClient.listNewNews(..) can use a lot of memory for large groups.  I recommend adding streaming version of the same.
>   Iterator<String> iterateNewNews(NewGroupsOrNewsQuery query);
> One could also add streaming versions of the *Newsgroups methods, but these are expected to have smaller results than some large newsgroups.
>   Iterator<NewsgroupInfo> iterateNewNewsgroups(NewGroupsOrNewsQuery query);
>   Iterator<NewsgroupInfo> iterateNewsgroups();
>   Iterator<NewsgroupInfo> iterateNewsgroups(String wildmat);
> I'll work on iterateNewNews(..) and submit a patch if it's good.
