  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. (Still in its early
  beta stage)
