Prolog webservers are old hat. What I would like to see is an NNTP
server written in prolog :)

You could start with a WILDMAT matcher,
the rest doesn't look so difficult:

[C] NEWNEWS news.*,sci.* 19990624 000000 GMT
[S] 230 list of new articles by message-id follows
[S] <i.am.a.ne...@example.com>
[S] <i.am.another...@example.com>
[S] .

Except for the storage & concurrency problem...

Someone wrote a primitive X server in Prolog some time back.

But I guess it would be more fun, to make some
call by meaning services.

With an appropriate configuration and some
NNTP mapping you could then query any news server

more dynmamically your own or a foreign one. The
NNTP RFC isn't the worst, you have already a list
command that lists the actual set of verbs.
