/*
 *	newsgate.h
 *
 *	This file contains the definitions needed for the notesfile/news
 *	gateway features.
 *
 *	The new (April 4) implementation allows gateing from news to 
 *	notesfiles at ANY site. Gateing from notes to news is allowed 
 *	by a SINGLE site (for any given newsgroup) per notesfile 'subnet'.
 *
 *	An example:
 *	4 sites at U. of I. running notesfiles: A,B,C and D.
 *
 *	A and B also interface to news and the rest of the network.
 *	C and D run notesfiles only, A and B run news in parallel.
 *	A is the specified gateway from notesfiles to news. 
 *	Both A and B can gateway from news to notesfiles, without
 *	fear of duplication.
 *
 *	So, for any given 'subnet' of notesfiles, count the N sites that
 *	also run news. One of these N 'parallel' sites should gate from
 *	notesfiles to news. It should (and the other N-1 if they desire)
 *	run gateways from news to notesfiles.
