GNEWS is a scrolling news ticker applet designed for the GNOME Panel.
The idea of this applet is came from the Netropa Internet receiver
I got with the drivers of my keyboard and from the existing SlashApp applet.
The development is hosted at SourceForge
so you can reach the project
page there. Anyhow, this is my first applet so be gentle. ;) Huh, I almost
forgot: GNEWS is licensed under the GNU GPL.

A brand new version, 0.1.0 is out, with a lot of changes.
From this release GNEWS now uses a gmodule based plugin architecture
and there is no need to use a separate gnews backend server. Because the
headlines are fetched directly from the sites there will be no more global
hangups due to the errors of the previous main server.
There is a new shared library for the developers so anyone can develop new
plugins for gnews.
Warning the proxy support is not working in this release!
- 2002-01-03
version 0.0.10 is released supporting user configurable
backend url

sorry.
