Yarrow-- a reverse gossip client for the web

Yarrow is a web front end to the RGTP bulletin board transfer protocol.

RGTP is:

• secure (users are cryptographically identified)
• centralised (all discussion is held on one server under the control of nominated editors)
• linear (the item format helps regulate thread drift)
• mature (it has been in regular use for over five years).

Yarrow is:

• convenient (it can be used on any computer which can run a web browser)
• stable (it has been in regular use by several people for several months)
• safe (all state is held on one server, rather than being passed over the net)
• free (the source is openly available, and licensed under the GPL).

Where to go now:

• See screenshots of what it looks like in practice.
• Read the fine manual, which contains a step-by-step tutorial.
• Try using it yourself!
• Download the stable Python sources. You can also view the current sources in CVS.
• Visit some other relevant websites.
• Get in touch with the author and with other users.
