And the reason why special NNTP server is needed is, I guess,
that plain NNTP server will not be able to cope with all the diffs

will not be distributable..
Or is there any other reason?
Actually, the real reason was I was stupid (I am always stupid
but I was more stupid than I usually am in this case). We could
just inject new patches into appropriate newsgroups as they come
along, either from a cron job or from the post-update hook.
