    I want an NNTP network and I know many others do as well, I surely
    cannot be alone in a quest for a protocol which allows discussions on
    topics with any client you want to use. Therefore I want to create a
    new Usenet, in this proposal I shall refer to it as Usenet-Next as it
    needs a name that people can use to relate to this proposal.

    Sure. Charge $10 for each message read. That would get rid of spam.

    And how will you determine if a particular message is spam?

    Is spam really a problem? I think the shrinking number of users and
    servers might be a problem but the spam problem in Usenet is over. No
    spammer cares about Usenet anymore.
