My first attempt to add ietf-nntp to the list of "non-WG" lists a week
ago failed for unclear reasons, I tried it again today.  Most of the
news-nntp-uri I-D is probably really a matter for the URI list, but
some details might be also interesting here for folks not reading the
URI list.

My latest addition addresses the obscure news-message-ID access type,
