Jan,
I was working on a news caching-proxy thing in Python a couple of
months ago. It's intended to enable an online newsreader to read news
via NNTP while offline so it contains a simple NNTP server. I haven't
worked on it for a while and I've since decided that much of the
design is too complex so when I go back to it, I plan to rip out a
bunch of stuff. But in case some part of it may be of interest to you,
I've bundled it up with a GPL and put it at:
