INN Version 2.2.2, December 13th, 1999 This is a bug-fix release that corrects a y2k bug in 2.2.1 that will show up in the NEWNEWS and NEWGROUPS commands after 2000-01-01 00:00:00 when the date specified to the command is before 2000-01-01 00:00:00 The current 2.2.1 ported version does have this problem.
