> 	Title		: An NNTP Extension for Dynamic Feed Adjustment

> This document describes an extension to the Network News Transport
> Protocol[RFC977] that allows NNTP peers to dynamically adjust
> their criteria for sending network news articles to one another.
>  
> This extension provides only for the addition of 'negative' criteria,
> i.e., criteria for articles that are not to be sent.  It is believed
> that a more comprehensive scheme allowing for 'positive' criteria,
> while desirable, would not receive wide deployment in the Internet
> because of concerns about security and intellectual property.  The
> extension described in this document does not present these concerns
> and allows for gains in network efficiency.
