Well I wouldnt say "port", but I would say "programmed something similar". I have been running UseNet and UUCP on my Amiga for about 1 month now. The UUCP software is the work of William Loftus and is available directly from him. The UseNet software is still under co-development by Bill & myself. It uses Bill's UUCP as a basis but is not available yet.
