I was sad to find out that one of the best OS X newsreader, Halime, is no longer being developed by its creator, Imdat Solak.
Unfortunately, due to a lot of reasons, I am giving up developing a PUBLIC version of Halime from now on. Please feel free to download the source code above, which represents the latest version of Halime.
Fortunately, the source is now available to the public under GPL and I have re-compiled it in Panther using Xcode 1.0.1. I will be testing it to see whether it is faster under GCC 3.3 and do some performance benchmarking next week between the last public release and my own compilation. This is because the internet connection in the hotel I am staying this week blocks the NNTP port so I can’t access the USENET.
